An invaluable source of inspiration to help leaders understand themselves and overcome their barriers to success. For centuries, we have learnt what's not taught through our own experiences and the stories of others. Even today, only 3 per cent of leadership development occurs due to classroom training. In fact, for most managers, 'the penny drops' only when we are at the end of our careers. In this book, R Gopalakrishnan shares some valuable learnings from his decades of corporate experience, through a series of engaging stories. 'When the Penny Drops' encourages you to reflect on yourself and will help you learn by identifying the success mantras embedded in you.
