Synopsis

When we hear the word "leadership," we often associate it with the workplace, but some of the best examples of leadership can be found in the home or among loved ones. In Leadership in Crisis and Crisis in Leadership, Dr. Ganesh Narine delves into what it means to be a leader. He discusses his own experiences of success and challenges as a manager, while also demonstrating the many ways other people in his life have shown great leadership.

In providing stories about his life and the lives of those around him, Ganesh shares the lessons he learned along the way. He hopes readers will be inspired to apply these lessons to the many challenges they will face in their own lives and pass that wisdom on for others to benefit.

No leadership discussion would be complete for Ganesh without including two people who, to him, were the most influential: DaddyMa and Mama. They were the special embodiment of good role models. They remained steadfast during the difficult moments in their lives and proved they were both excellent leaders.

In essence, Leadership in Crisis and Crisis in Leadership is about encouraging people to remain focused, learn from their experiences, and always build on the successes that come along the way. Ganesh believes that success is only possible through people.
