Is It What You Hoped For?: Perceptions and Realities For 21st Century Leaders

More about the book

WHY do people want to become leaders in today's turbulent political and social climate, routinely walking a razor thin line between great success and complete personal ruin? Leaders are perhaps, like never before, in the crosshairs of a fickle, unseen enemy who enjoys nothing more than the routine destruction of society?Truthfully, I find myself grateful that my days of leadership have ended. Now, if still in the game, I would not want to lead. I would want to run for cover."This book clearly illustrates the give and take of the freedom, autonomy, increased compensation, and responsibility that come with leadership."
