Synopsis

What makes a great business leader? A more compelling questions: are there things we can learn from these leaders? Not surprisingly, there is no single answer to copy in order to excel in business. In fact, the leaders selected in Lessons From The Top are wildly different in their personalities and the industries they work in. But perhaps the best way to learn how to excel is to study the strategies and thinking of a range of leaders who have proved the best at what they do. Of course, theusual suspects (Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Andy Grove) are here - but the authors also quiz the people behind such influential companies as The Gap, Starbucks, Gillette and Merril Lynch in what amounts to a series of management masterclasses.
