Is leadership a race?

<p><i>Is Leadership a Race?</i> is applicable to leaders old and new, of all levels of experience and expertise. It is a book that will support people considering becoming a leader, who are new to leadership or who are established leaders. If you are undertaking a national professional qualification, then this book will serve as the ideal aide-memoire. Equally, if you just want a referral point that will serve as a touchstone for guidance and reassurance, then this is the book for you. <br><br>The focus of this book is deliberately sharp and tight, with consideration predominantly given to the following seven areas: know who you are; understand what leadership means; know and respect your context; know, respect and support your people; positively drive behaviour; focus on the curriculum; and build your culture. If you want a book on leadership written by someone who has real experience of the job, then look no further.</p>
