Popular culture feeds us images of the square-jawed, strong-armed leader - charismatic, powerful, decisive - but the truth is, with the right amount of self-knowledge and authenticity, anyone can be a good leader, even those who don't fit the stereotype. There are countless courses and books available on leadership technique, decision-making and public speaking, but How to Be a Leader aims to give you the tools to understand and bring out your own leadership style. With an in-depth look at what it really means to lead, and the difference between being a manager and being a leader, How to Be a Leader invites you to explore - and accept - the unique leader in you.

How to Act Like a Leader

O que significa assumir um papel de liderança? Ninguém nasce pronto para liderar, mas nada nos impede de assumir essa posição. Essa é a ideia central de Como ser um líder. A cultura popular está repleta de imagens do líder de expressão forte — uma pessoa carismática, poderosa, decidida —, mas a verdade é que, com a dose certa de autoconhecimento e autenticidade, mesmo aqueles que não se encaixam no estereótipo podem chegar lá. Há incontáveis cursos e livros que ensinam técnicas de liderança, de tomadas de decisão e oratória. O mais importante, porém, é aprender a enxergar nosso próprio estilo e descobrir a forma de aprimorá-lo. Com um olhar aprofundado ao que realmente significa liderar, este livro ensina a explorar — e a aceitar — o líder que existe em cada um de nós. "The School of Life se dedica a deixar nossa vida mais clara, menos confusa e mais divertida ao estudar os grandes temas da vida com a ajuda da cultura. Esta nova série continua a reinventar o gênero da autoajuda, tornando-o algo mais sério, profundo e genuinamente útil." — Alain de Botton, autor e editor da série The School of Life
