The release of Influential Leadership during August attracted the attention of the Center for Creative Leadership. As a result, I was interviewed by Rebecca Garau on the rationale for the book, and what makes it so different.

During the interview, Rebecca was very complimentary of the way it keeps things practical, unlike many books on leadership. She particularly liked the way it addresses the real challenges facing those in leadership positions, especially the dilemma between short-term pressures and long-term vision.
