From a careful reading of the book, leadership skills are presented as outstanding and critical for human development in the world of business. The author employs the hermeneutics of his own experiences to elaborate on key issues as regards leadership. Here, one discerns a pedagogy of failure, where mistakes are never considered as disasters but rather as opportunities to learn more intelligently. Good leadership therefore entails open-mindedness and respect for the perspectives of others. Open-mindedness therefore stands as an intellectual quality that demonstrates socio-emotional skills in organisational leadership. Also, respect for others' cutures paves the way to good communication skills in leadership.
