Synopsis

Follow celebrated consultant, educator, and leader David Fubini as he discusses what it takes to be a real leader in this invaluable resource. Hidden Truths: What Leaders Need to Hear but Are Rarely
Told compiles the most essential and practical leadership advice the author has gathered over his 30+ years of consulting to leaders of all types.

You’ll learn about the fourteen essential skills that can help leaders deliver success—both for themselves and for the organizations they serve. You’ll also read about how to effectively
assist others in leadership positions to better achieve your shared goals, whether you’re a board member, an HR professional, consultant, or other professional.

Written in an approachable and actionable style, Hidden Truths prepares you for the crucible of leadership, in which emotions run high and interpersonal relationships are put at risk. The book
describes how to navigate the fraught territory of high-pressure leadership positions where you never have enough hours in the day and where you must consistently choose between options without full information.

As modern leaders grapple with the digital revolution, a volatile economy, a demanding array of shareholders and stakeholders, an accelerating rate of change, and an interconnected world, this book
stands apart in delivering practical guidance that can be immediately implemented to make your life simpler and more productive.

Perfect for Chief Executive Officers, Chief Financial Officers, Chief Operating Officers, Senior Vice Presidents, founders, entrepreneurs, and other executives, Hidden Truths also belongs on the
bookshelves of anyone who must work with someone in one of these coveted but stressful roles. Aspiring leaders will also realize a substantial benefit from this book, as they learn the skills they’ll need to succeed at the next level.
