Summary

Today's leaders in academia and industry are under more pressure than ever before. Their roles are so complex and demanding that it is impossible to fulfill them by applying current leadership theory alone. Christopher Branson argues in this compelling book that we need a sea change in leadership theory and practice that will see 'wisdom' guiding the actions of those who lead.
