About the Book
If you’ve sat through a hundred leadership trainings and always felt that something was missing, this may be the book for you.
Rather than yet another set of leadership skills, this book describes nine pairs of skills – nine for leadership and nine for followership – and how they fit together. You’ll learn how to assess which role you need to stand in and how best to express it given what’s going on around you.
