Summary

Today, leaders are expected to be both reassuring and authoriative, emotionally one and tough, empowering and powerful. Success depends on understanding how great leaders face these conflicting demands: what roles they play, how they operate, how they enhance their abilities, and how they achieve the best results for their companies.
