Executives have to produce change within their organisations but across functions they don't control. Policemen have to work alongside health and housing professionals. Non-executives have to influence decisions that are not theirs to make. Authority is becoming less clear-cut. The traditional leadership tools work - but nothing like as well as they used to. Increasingly, you need to supplement them with others. That's what this book is about.
Sophie Petit-Zeman (in association with Common Purpose) Whether you are a new chair, an old hand, or even just thinking about whether or not you'd like to sit at the head of the board, this book is for you. It contains the cumulative wisdom of dozens of chairs, from all types and sizes of organisations, from huge NHS Trusts to school governors, from charities to arts councils.
