The LeaderShiP iLLuSiOnThe importance of context and connectionsmr TOny haLL and karen Janman

This book is about what the authors call a ‘leadership phenomenon’; the hard wired habit of writers, researchers and leaders themselves, when examining the causes of success or failure, to focus on predominantly the individual and often the context. But very rarely both. The authors argue that to make sense of leadership firstly you have to make sense of the context and the individual. To try to understand a leader without the context is only half the story. The authors attempt to tell the whole story.

TONY HALL has worked across the world in both the private and public sectors helping organisations and their leaders to improve performance.

KAREN JANMAN is a consultant and executive coach in Organisational Psychology. She has consulted to a wide range of organisations on a number of topics from change management to the assessment and development of senior executives.

Tony and Karen are co-founders of a specialist consultancy that provides tools and development to leaders and their organisations in order to deliver their strategic goals through effective social networks. They can be contacted via: [email protected]

BuSineSS aT a crOSSrOadSThe crisis of corporate LeadershipTOm LLOyd

Recent events suggest liberal capitalism harbours two dangerous seeds of self-destruction; growing inequality and a tendency for markets to spiral out of control. This book advocates the restoration to an earlier state of another sub-system of liberal capitalism, some of the features of which lie at the heart of liberal capitalism’s malaise.

markeTing ThrOugh TurBuLenT TimeSJenny darrOch

‘while every executive is currently preoccupied, and perhaps immobilized, with how to compete in tumultuous times, this is the very first practical managerial guidebook to help managers not only compete, but win. importantly, this is not simply an interesting ‘thought piece’, but rather based on solid empirical evidence examining how firms accelerated out of recessionary times versus firms that simply survived.’ - Bernie Jaworski, monitor executive development, monitor group

What will happen to the marketing industry when the recession comes to an end? How will customers respond to organizations that mistreated them in the past? What can organizations do now? This book addresses these questions by tying together four themes: democracy, economic recession, individual depression and customer-centred strategies.
