Academic Press | 2006-09-27 | ISBN: 0123705878 | 120 pages | PDF | 1,3 Mb
The exciting new follow-up to Alexander Margulis' Be in Charge this book offers a guide for those who desire advancement to top positions in business and academia. It discusses and presents advantages of progress and presents the inherent sacrifices to the individual and family in that pursuit. Essential 'do-s' and 'dont-s' are included as well as some hilarious items from the Internet and illustrated with 14 cartoons by Tom Reese a respected US cartoonist.
Most importantly, at the core of his persona, Alex cared more about our careers and success than he did about his own. He has served as a mentor to me for 30 years and now, in The Road to Success he offers the reader some of that same sage advice and counsel that have been invaluable to me in my academic career.
The late Peter Drucker was quoted on the difference between leadership and management:
Management is about doing things right. Leadership is about doing the right things.
In The Road to Success, Dr Margulis has elucidated the characteristics of leaders that will guide them to do “the right things.” True to form, rather than extol the virtues of his leadership style, Dr Margulis provides very specific advice and counsel that will be invaluable for those who aspire to rise into positions of leadership.
