Allows readers to experience the dynamic "case-in-point" approach to teaching leadership, based on Harvard professor Ronald Heifetz's leadership course. This book argues that the complex times require a different kind of leader - one who can adapt to constant changes, learn in the moment and apply that learning to make wise business decisions.
