English
By (author): John Mclachlan Karen Meager
What makes an effective leader?
Its a popular belief that the world of leadership is some mysterious arena where only the strong, fearless and gifted can survive. But this isnt necessarily true, and its certainly not been the experience of Organisational Psychologists Karen Meager and John McLachlan.
In Real Leaders, Karen and John unpack and examine all the psychological and behavioural traits that characterise many great leaders. Through an accessible mix of pragmatic and practical guidance, they demonstrate how to adopt and adapt these common attributes, develop your own, authentic leadership style and - whether youre an existing or aspiring leader - coach you on how you can elevate your skills and create success.
Eye-opening new research carried out for this fully revised second edition underlines how leaders are, above all, human. They dont fall into standard leadership stereotypes or a 'one size fits all' approach. Using a powerful range of updated concepts and models, its now easier than ever for you to evolve and grow as you harness the essential qualities of effective leadership.
