The essence of successful leadership lies in credible and persuasive communication.

At the very top, that’s essentially all you do, and it’s what makes serving on a Board of Directors fundamentally different from anything you’ve done before.

This book reveals what it means to operate as a true Communicator. How do you shape your reputation and public image? Which personality traits make the difference? What are the dangers of overconfidence and hubris? Why does one CEO thrive while another fails spectacularly? How relevant is transparency, really? And how should you deal with emotion in a leadership context?
