There have been many books on leadership, but here at last is one that actually draws on the wisdom of those in the know.

Acting on his belief that you get the most done at the beginning of a meeting. Allan Leighton invited Britain's top businessmen and women to spend just twenty minutes talking about their views on leadership.

And he has talked to an astonishing range of them - the established giants, such as Philip Green and Rupert Murdoch: the new generation of leaders, such as Andy Hornby at HBOS and Justin King at Sainsbury: and entrepreneurial figures who include James Dyson and Martha Lane Fox. He has gone further, too - interviewing the nation's top financial journalists, whose views can help make a company soar or sink; the money men, whose support is critical for investment and acquisition; the politicians, who help create the climate in which businesses can thrive or falter.

The result is a fascinating 360-degree view of what it takes to be a leader in today's cut throat-global economy, written by someone who has himself been a dominant business figure for over 20years. Sprinkled throughout with Allan Leighton's own pithy observations, it offers analysis and ideas that are thought-provoking, often surprising, always insightful.
