Power often carries a destructive streak that eats away at organisational effectiveness. This book contributes a timely reminder especially as far-right leaders appear to be on the ascendancy in many parts of the world, casting long shadows of narcissism, hubris, corruption, nepotism, lack of empathy and Machiavellianism, issues which this book deals with in great detail. The book is an excellent compendium and reminder of the devastating effect of the dark side of leadership. It is a compelling read for leaders and all those interested in organisational progress.
