Leadership with Soul is an invitation for current and future leaders to stop, reflect and reinvent their approach to leadership to become ever better leaders. Anyone from a management student to a global CEO who wants to become a more inspiring leader and achieve better results will benefit. In Leadership with Soul, André Lacroix unveils his formula for making businesses prosper. The book challenges conventional leadership thinking, asking leaders to listen to their humanist side and create significant value for all by putting people at the heart of their growth strategy, trusting, empowering and galvanising them to execute on a daily basis. In my experience, this is the only way to deliver sustainable growth and value for all stakeholders. - from publisher
