Learn Like a Leader

More than a decade ago, a group of bestselling authors, thought leaders and management experts—among them Marshall Goldsmith, Beverly Kaye and Ken Shelton—met to share their defining moments on leadership with one another. So taken were they with each other’s stories that an annual tradition of trading leadership secrets was established. A recurring truth emerged: great leaders seize the opportunity to learn, again and again. Learn Like a Leader brings together these remarkable stories of learning and provides a close look at how top leaders—including Jim Collins, Warren Bennis and Dave Ulrich—were able to grow their careers, overcome setbacks and soar to the top. Offering profound lessons from key learning moments in the lives and careers of the contributors, Learn Like a Leader conveys the power of storytelling in teaching, training and mentoring.
