Leadership 101
About this book
Whether you have just been appointed captain of your sports team, the head of an organising committee or director of a work division, the mantle of leadership can feel heavy. Inevitably, this new position will bring responsibilities you've never experienced before. Fortunately, there are many brilliant books written about leadership. Less fortunately, you are unlikely to find the time with all your new responsibilities to read them all, or indeed, any of them. So, Tony Harris has brought over three decades of his experience to create a book of 101 observations each in a mere 101 words, designed to help, remind and encourage anybody who suddenly finds themselves in charge. Many have been there before you and doubted their own suitability but they made it and, with a little sound advice, so will you.
