Requirements: .PDF reader, 39 Mb
Overview: “Leading Minds” addresses a crucial and often ignored component of leadership — the mind. What distinguishes the mind of an effective leader, and what is the mentality of his or her followers?

He argues that the key to leadership is the creation of an arresting story — one that grabs the followers’ attention and inspires them to greater efforts. In portraits of a wide range of leaders — from Oppenheimer to Gandhi — Gardner re-creates each of their stories, shows where each fits in the matrix of “leader archetypes,” and reveals the ways in which they ultimately succeed or fail.”Gardner elaborates a plausible typology of leadership and identifies several core characteristics of leaders….persuasive.” “–New York Times Book Review” “Superb.”–Warren Bennis, “Harvard Business Review”
