The learning library
There is a huge appetite today for knowledge on the subject of leadership development and with over one hundred million hits on google alone and more than two hundred books going to press each year it can make the right book choice a tricky business.
A good book can open our eyes and create the necessary courage to experiment as we go through the rewarding and transformational journey of improving the way we manage ourselves and our people.
We have decided to share some of our favourite publications and hope you enjoy one or two of them.
