this book will not only provide you with (clues for) answers but, and much more important, it will question you about your own leadership style. Effective leaders know how to excite followers to reach exceptional performance. The book is filled with tough questions for veteran or aspirant leaders to ask themselves: are you exciting? do you demand exceptional performance? do you really want a leadership role? It is up to you to answer questions like these and answer the ultimate leadership question: why should anyone be led by you?
