Abstract
I have just gone quite far out on the limb, promising you that you will be a successful leader, if only you consider the recommendations put forward in this chapter. And at the same time I claimed, somewhat provokingly, that to “creatively” deviate from these aspects substantially would clearly jeopardise your leadership position.
A man who has nothing in which he is ahead of another is not a leader.
Zhuang Zhou, Philosopher
