By Carié Maas
Never Waste a Good Crisis was born in the wake of COVID-19. However, the book elaborates on many other challenges that leaders in corporate South Africa have had to deal with – including deeply personal ones.
Is leadership an art? Can you learn it? Can anyone be a leader?
Carié Maas asks twenty seasoned leaders what their leadership philosophies are, and their opinions vary as widely as the industries they come from. The lessons they share from their journeys up the corporate ladder will inspire, encourage and challenge the reader.
