The Will to Lead is a book of wisdom and reflection from a man who has observed and shaped the field of management for over 60 years. During his long and illustrious career at the helm of McKinsey & Company, Marvin Bower has seen more important business leaders close up, helped shaped more companies, and dealt with more of their serious problems than perhaps anyone else in the business world. As a chief executive himself, he built and ran one of the most successful enterprises ever-McKinsey & Company. THE WILL TO LEAD draws on Bower's 60 years of experience to present his highly personal vision of how to lead people to work together. Raising serious questions about "command-and-control" leadership, Bower urges the creation of companies based on networks of leaders and leadership teams. Weaving in stories and lessons from his own journey, he outlines the first steps for making it happen. Bower built his distinguished career on giving the right advice at the right time, and for always acting on first principles. The Will to Lead is no exception. It will strike a chord among managers who aspire to be leaders and to help others be leaders.
