He seeks to make you a dynamic and inspirational leader. Power tips show you how to handle real-life situations and develop first-class leadership skills. Yellow numbered boxes include phrases such as:
"Take into account the feelings of staff when promoting internally."

People will bring their personal difficulties to a good leader and they may not even be work related. It is important to show sympathy.
"Trust can be difficult to build, but it is easy to lose."
The aspect of a promise made is a promise kept is very important. Being loyal to your people, praising success and only criticizing in private will show others you are someone they can trust and that you have their best interests at heart.
Compact and essential!
