Dear friend,
By this book, I hope to be able to contribute to your leadership journey in a significant way. Irrespective of your field of endeavor, I am confident that this bouquet of articles will be helpful and relevant to you.
Let me let you in on how this book came about. For a long time, I have maintained a weekly column in the Business and Financial Times newspaper in Ghana. My articles have covered a range of topics on personal development. In this book, I have selected and compiled few of the leadership
articles I have published in the newspaper over the years.
My desire is that the concepts you glean from this book will accentuate your strengths, assuage your weaknesses, and accelerate your progress.
Regards,
