    Entrepreneurs Brief Guide - How to Lead From the Front.

    A common perception people hold about leaders is that great leaders are born great, and if you do not have it in you, you can never become a good leader. However, this perception is changing now as more and more people are realizing that with hard work, patience and persistence you can become a highly effective leader.

    In 30 minutes, learn how to: (a) Assess yourself to check ‘how motivated you are to lead’, (b) Use the tool of Expert Power and (c) Build and gain Expert Power.
