Author Bio
John Adair is widely acknowledged as one of the most significant influences on management and leadership development in the world. He studied history at Cambridge University and holds higher degrees from the Universities of Oxford and London. He became the world's first Professor of Leadership Studies at the University of Surrey and is internationally known as a consultant. He is the author of many respected books on management and leadership. Neil Thomas has written Keeping the Lid on to demonstrate how (before such matters were as much in the public arena as they now are) the desire for cover-ups in respected institutions could hide a multitude of sins. He is the author of many non-fiction works and also All Through the Night (a Welsh Western) set in the 1790s, showing how cowboys originated in Wales and not Wyoming!
