About
John Adair is an exceptionally successful hero of our backlist, with the 7 previous titles of the 'Effective...' series totting up sales of more than 300,000 copies.
With the rapid trend away from management to business leadership, there is a need for a new, broader understanding of leadership. This clear and authoritative guide answers the questions, 'what is strategic leadership?', 'what makes a person effective as a strategic leader?' and 'how can I develop my abilities as a leader?'.
The concept of leadership is relevant not only to organisational life but to all of us: everyone has to 'lead' their own life. To be a strategic life-leader means developing a vision and direction for one's life, identifying personal core values and fostering an informal team among colleagues and associates.
John Adair is an international leadership consultant to a wide variety of organisations in business, government, the voluntary sector, education and health, and has been named as one of the 40 people worldwide who have contributed most to the development of management thought and practice. In 2009 the United Nations appointed him as Chair of Strategic Leadership Studies at its central college in Turin. He has written over 40 books on leadership, management and history, which have been translated into many languages.
