商品簡介
Leadership lessons do not just come from the rich, famous, or seasoned corporate veterans, and similarly knowledge and acumen are not acquired exclusively in the classroom or boardroom. Majed Yaghi, a retired corporate executive, shares inspiring lessons from his mother, Nazira, who never attended school yet still built a thriving enterprise grounded in her relentless passion for winning and will to overcome all odds. Until her passing in 2012, she demonstrated leadership qualities typical of Ivy League graduates and corporate executives, except she was neither. Instead, she was the head of a household of eight children whose passion was to encourage them to be high achievers and the best in their respective fields. In a guide inspired by his mother's influence, Yaghi shares four vital leadership competencies that focus on instilling passion, planning, persistence, and perpetual optimism into the journey to become a better leader. Included are other lessons that focus on learning and leading by axioms. Leadership Lessons from an Illiterate Mom is a guide that shares lessons inspired by a Jordanian mother who led all eight of her children to achieve greatness through her mentoring and servant leadership.
