Abstract: 'This book focuses on leadership for the practitioner and avoids strategic leadership which is the domain of boards, the CEO and the most senior corporate management. In doing so it aims to provide practical advice for practical people. Chapters 1-7 ask "Why leadership". The chapters in the second part turn to the diccussion towards practical leadership and "The hand of leadership". each finger represents a key area of managerial responsibility but goes onto explain that collectively they are leadership.' taken from the introduction.
