Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
Know-How
is defined as what separates leaders who deliver results from those who don’t.
Know-how generally consists of eight skills which are different and distinct yet when combined and linked can mean a huge difference in ability to deliver real-world results.
Know-how is about what you must both do and be to lead your business in what is shaping up to be the most challenging business environment in decades. We need leaders who know what they are doing. Change is always with us, but its current magnitude, speed, and depth is unlike what most people have experienced in their lifetimes.
