A former CEO and now a Senior Fellow at Harvard Business
School, Bill George explains in his latest book Discover Your True North what it means to be an authentic leader
and how to develop into being one. George explains what you have to consider
and do to be a values-led leader and the pitfalls to navigate around so as to
avoid the shadow side of leading. The bulk of the book consists of stories of
leaders used to illustrate George’s points and lessons. The vast majority of
leaders highlighted are from business, but George’s lessons are relevant to
those who would lead in any field. This is a useful book for those who are
striving to grow into a leader for the 21st century.
