Review
On a global basis, transformative leadership is a rare asset and vital to the success of any organization. Peter has uncovered a compelling paradigm that will no doubt benefit leaders and their organizations. (Tim Armstrong, CEO, AOL Inc)
Highly original, evidence-based and deeply engaging ... This is a masterful work - one you'll enjoy, use, and return to over and over again. (Jim Kouzes, co-author of the bestselling 'The Leadership Challenge')
There's a sacred space where story, metaphor and data meet, and Peter's work stands solidly in the center of that space. This book has changed my understanding of leadership and organizational
transformation. I can't stop thinking about those metaphors!
Peter has spent many years researching how apparently ordinary managers become extraordinary leaders, and has done a wonderful job in Leadership Transformed of articulating the pathway. I strongly recommend this book (Dr Maha Sinnathamby, Chairman and owner of Springfield Land Corporation and author of Stop Not Till the Goal is Reached)
Peter has uncovered the art behind predictable leadership and business transformations. The road map he lays out for leaders in this book is challenging, unnerving and exciting. (Mark Weikel, President and CEO, Retail Optical North America, Luxottica)
Dr Fuda guides committed readers on a journey to becoming truly exceptional leaders. I highly recommend Leadership Transformed to anyone focused on making meaningful leadership changes. (Preston Kevin Lewis, Managing Director Australia, New Zealand and India, Warner Bros Consumer Products)
Peter identifies the issues and challenges common to all leaders and lays out a clear and compelling strategy to transform any executive into a better leader. (Richard Freudenstein, CEO, Foxtel)
Leadership Transformed is not just a pathway to success; it is very entertaining and exciting as well. The many personal case studies make it real and tangible; they make you aware of the mistakes you are making day to day. Peter lays out a clear road map for transformation that any leader can follow. (Dr Susanne Fiedler, MD, Merck Sharp & Dohme ANZ)
This book provides some extraordinarily profound insights which will no doubt be of lasting value to many leaders and the people and organisations they lead. The balance of academic rigour, wisdom and practical application is a compelling and extremely worthwhile read. (Brett Himbury, CEO, Industry Funds Management)
