Description
The most powerful lessons of leadership do not come at once, but are learned and re-learned through time, trial and error. In Pearls of Leadership Wisdom, Volume II, Sandra Davis neatly shares what she's learned during a lifetime of leadership consulting with many of the nation's top employers. You'll gain immediately applicable insights to maximize your leadership potential. "We all begin as budding leaders, charged with specific roles and responsibilities, and over time and with influence from others, we hopefully grow into better and more accomplished versions of ourselves. We also become more adept at 'getting' and understanding how key learnings and life lessons translate into actionable behaviors and results." (Sandra Davis, Pearls of Leadership Wisdom, Volume II)
