Distilling the wisdom of the past with an eye toward the future, Great Leadership cuts through the complexity of leading organizations, operations, and people to make leadership development manageable and greatness attainable.

Whether you are looking to lay a solid foundation for a lifetime of great leadership or searching for a curriculum to guide your self-development, Antony Bell has mapped out a journey of discovery to help you uncover what drives your leadership style and do what it takes to practice leadership that is both noble and competent.

Combines profound insight with a practical and usable framework to exercise great leadership and, in doing so, fills a void in the literature on leadership. I highly recommend this wonderful book. -- The Honorable Jack Kemp, Former U.S. Congressman, Cabinet Secretary, and Vice Presidential Candidate
A great book for people who want to give serious thought to the application of great leadership. It is for those who are looking for more than superfi cial answers and who are willing to embrace the importance of both character and competence—the two themes around which the book is structured. -- John A. Kaneb, Chairman, Gulf Oil Company; President, Catamount Companies; Partner, Boston Red Sox Baseball Franchise; Trustee, University of Notre Dame
Meets current needs of leaders in a way I have not seen anywhere else, providing practical, innovative direction for both novice and expert leaders. The stories of great leaders are inspiring, challenging today’s CEOs to rise above mediocrity. -- Dr. Kathy R. Hopkins, CEO, The National Institute for Learning Disabilities
