Synopsis "Leadership: Lessons From a Life in Diplomacy"

A British diplomat shares lessons on leadership gained over his expansive career. Anybody can aspire to be a leader, and nearly everybody has to lead sometimes. No matter the circumstances in which we might be called to lead, be it at work, on the sports field, or in the community, the example of top leaders in politics and public service (both their successes and shortcomings) can help you figure out your own approach. Over nearly four decades in HM Diplomatic Service, Simon McDonald has worked for four permanent under-secretaries and a dozen senior ambassadors before becoming permanent under-secretary himself. He worked directly for six foreign secretaries and saw five prime ministers work in close quarters. Observing these people undertaking the most important and often the most difficult work in the country, he saw the behaviors that helped them achieve their objectives and those that hindered them. In his first book, McDonald assumes that thinking about leadership before you lead helps you to lead better. Leadership: Lessons From a Life of Diplomacy is a clear-sighted and insightful contribution to that debate.
