Publisher's Synopsis
What makes a powerful leader? Is it something inherited? is it learned behavior? Can anyone acquire leadership abilities with sufficient determination? Why do some people seem to have a "presence" that compels others to follow? What is it about them that gives them a powerful ability to influence others? These questions have been asked for centuries. Yet the answers are clear. Powerful leaders do have some behaviors and characteristics in common. What may seem to be a mystery can be understood. This book documents a strong consensus about leadership behavior, discovered as the author traveled to over 30 countries conducting seminars for military, police, and political leaders. This book reveals the essential character traits (or ethics) that result in powerful leadership behavior. Rather than only addressing behavior, it probes deeper to identify, discuss, and practically apply the whole issue of character.
