Book Description | Seize the competitive advantage by building speed into your leadership DNA It's no secret that the pace of change in business today is unprecedented. Leaders who act quickly and inspire others to do the same are the ones who ultimately win the day. Speed reveals essential leadership qualities you can use to improve speed and ultimately drive organizational effectiveness. The book helps you assess the speed at which you work and make decisions and provides calibration regarding how you compare to 7,000 others in the authors' database.
