The book stems from a decade of teaching short programs on persuasive management by Steve Carroll, and more recently Patrick Flood.. These programs used materials drawn from the arts (film clips, paintings, poetical books, prose, andtheatre) to illustrate the links between leadership, persuasive skill (or rhetoric) and values. They have proved extremely popular with the most hard-nosedbusiness executives..The authors use their unconventional material to explorethemes such as moral leadership, toxic leadership, learning from failures, distributed leadership, the leader as a counsellor. The book consists of 16 chapters focused on the topic of Persuasive Leadership and provides insights and principles about persuasive leadership from a broad range of human experience. It draws examples of persuasive leaders and persuasive leadership principles from the performing arts, the fine arts, literature, philosophical writings, and biography.
