And it’s hard to use, requiring large amounts of head-banging to figure out the simplest operations. It’s no secret that software sucks. You know that from personal experience, whether you use computers for work or personal tasks. In this book, programming insider David Platt explains why that’s the case and, more importantly, why it doesn’t have to be that way. And he explains it in plain, jargon-free English that’s a joy to read, using real-world...
Too many companies are managed not by leaders, but by mere role players and faceless bureaucrats. What does it take to be a real leader - one who is confident in who they are and what they stand for and who truly inspires people to achieve extraordinary results.

"Why Should Anyone Be Led By You?" will forever change how we view, develop and practice the art of leadership, wherever we live and work.
