Synopsis

"Jordan and Wagner write with clarity and energy throughout, and businesspeople who seek to more fully understand the nature of their leadership style are likely to learn a lot." - Kirkus Reviews

"Right Leader Right Time is an excellent overview of the skills needed both to launch a new business or improve an existing one. Robert Jordan and Olivia Wagner offer a crucial insight - that there is no on formula for success nor one style that fits all situations. Instead they offer four styles - Fixer, Artist, Builder and Strategist - and explain the particular talents that each has to offer. Above all, they combine their theory with numerous real world examples that prove their point. In a world of electronic immersion and global tribes, Right Leader Right Time is the right book at the right time." - JAMES RICKARDS, Author, National Best Sellers Currency Wars: The Making of the Next Global Crisis, and The Death of Money
