  <description>&lt;p&gt; With a new Introduction by the author, this classic book captures the essence of leadership like none other--expanded and updated for tomorrow's leaders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;From the Publisher:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Warren Bennis's formative years, in the 1930s and '40s, were characterized by severe economic hardship and a world war that showcased the extreme depths and heights to which leaders could drive their followers. Today's environment is similarly chaotic, turbulent, and uncertain. On Becoming a Leader has served for nearly fifteen years as a beacon of insight, delving into the qualities that define leadership, the people who exemplify it, and the strategies that anyone can apply to become an effective leader. This new edition features a provocative introduction on the challenges and opportunities facing leaders today, with additional updates and current references throughout.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>
