Leadership qualities and character are an inside-out flow. Personal leadership and development precede the leadership and management of others and form the basis of personal integrity.
Many books on leadership focus on leadership skills. FIT 4 LEADING invites you to “discover the joy from taking a hard look at yourself.”
