Transformative Leadership: Developing the Hidden Dimension

by Eloy Anello, Joan Hernandez, May Khadem

Most books on leadership focus on skills - those visible aspects of leaders that garner applause, accolades and awards.

I have read lots of leadership books and this was by far one of the best. Poignant and thought provoking.

Great primer on leadership. This book digs deep into the heart of underlying beliefs and values that result in certain behaviors and works with what's below the surface, where deep and lasting change happens.
