The Unseen Leader: How History Can Help Us Rethink Leadership Gutmann Martin
The Unseen Leader delivers one simple but immensely powerful point: we need to radically rethink how we discuss leadership.In this book, American historian Martin Gutmann passionately challenges the received wisdom that history's great leaders were individuals with a proclivity for action and brash words. What emerges is an entirely new narrative on leadership. Drawing on extensive historical scholarship and contemporary leadership theory, Gutmann delves into the journeys of four unknown or misunderstood leaders who achieved remarkable successes in vastly different environments--the Polar North, the deserts of Arabia, the sugar plantations of the Caribbean, and Second World War London.
Contrary to the perception of heroic protagonists forging ahead boldly, history's truly great leaders were often precisely those who didn't need to generate excessive noise or activity.
