Emotional Impact: Passionate Leaders and Corporate Transformation (2001)Paperback - 2001, 1 January 2001

This book highlights a hitherto neglected element of leadership - personality. There are many accounts by, or about, leaders who have guided organisations but they often say little about how they felt as a person or how their charisma and passion infected their colleagues. Based around candid in-depth interviews with prominent leaders, including Ian MacLaurin of Tesco, Richard Ide of Volkswagen and Tim Waterstone, the authors explore the emotional impact of being a leader.
