Why do you need this book? There are too many leadership books, too many leadership theories, too many leadership courses, and no time to filter out the good from the bad from the just plain boring. Whether you are the CEO of a public company or the head of your own little empire of one, you don’t have time to wade through all the leadership information. You need a high impact, time saving guide to the essentials.
The 60 Second Leader does the research and the filtering for you. It distils thirty essential elements of leadership into 60 second bites, interlaced with thirty tales to help bring the learning to life. You’re too busy to read everything you need to read on leadership. So don’t. Let The 60 Second Leader be your short-cut guide.
