A practical, jargon-free and easily accessible book on making a
difference as a leader, Damian Hughes? Liquid
Leadership draws on a diverse list of leaders in everyday life
(Kim England, National Sales Training Manager at Unilever), to
showbiz celebrities (John Lennon, Walt Disney), to renowned
historical leaders (Shackleton, Eisenhower, Steve Jobs).
There are no stuffy theories here. Instead, the book jumps
energetically between film references from the Wizard of Oz,
Alfie and Superman to the leadership styles of
World-Cup winning coaches Alf Ramsay and Clive Woodward. Speckled
throughout are examples of ?Liquid Leaders?,
from people you know ? like James Timpson, head of the
UK-wide group of key-cutting and shoe repair outlets ? to
people we don?t know, including Fergus Findlay of
Barnardo?s in Ireland. This book offers you a joyous
diversion that pushes home important theory effortlessly. It
ends with practical exercises designed to galvanise the reader into
identifying how they need to change, as well as a very useful
annotated bibliography.
Both of Damian?s books have been credited with helping
people build their own houses, fight cancer and run marathons, so
come on and be a fellow Liquid Leader!
