Summary

"While top-level leaders may be exceptionally gifted and successful, they often have gaps in their skills in such vital areas as interpersonal relationships, adapting to rapid change and complexity and accountability, and inspiring and motivating others. From the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) comes a resource that explores the subtle yet powerful gaps that separate successful top-level leaders from extraordinary ones."--BOOK JACKET.
