The Smartest Guys in the Room by Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind is an amazing look behind the scenes at Enron. The book illuminates - in a new and fresh way - many of the players: Ken Lay, Jeff Skilling, Rebecca Mark, Andy Fastow and others. There is a fascinating leitmotif of leaders "partnering" with others to complement their own skill sets. Peter Elkind spoke with us on January 28th.

Look at two models of leadership – the “rock star” executive and the quiet leader.
In Michael Maccoby’s The Productive Narcissist, provides a model and examples of a visionary, “rock star” approach to being a leader (think Jack Welch, Bill Gates, and Oprah Winfrey) and examine the strengths and weaknesses of this style. There is even a quiz to diagnose your own style! To listen to our call with Michael, CLICK HERE.
In Joseph Badaracco's Leading Quietly provides a model of "quiet" leadership - people who choose to lead with their "behind-the-scenes" decision making. The book provides some excellent examples of quiet leaders facing difficult situations.
