Every day, millions of businesses around the world experience the same leadership problems: the managers, doers and wannabes who seek to lead run into traps, pitfalls and stumbling blocks. Whether corporations or startups, whether in Brazil or Berlin.
Jan Myszkowski knows many of them. All over the globe. A top manager himself, he has spent many years on the road, working in the corporate world. During breaks between meetings, in airport and station lounges, and when he has a free evening, he draws. His experiences serve as his inspiration. What emerges is an irrepressible passion for cartoons which seek to capture the little contradictions of leadership.
In his first book, the author has depicted 50 deputy managers from around the globe, staging each of them in typical and true-to-life cartoons. A collection of global curios of leadership. With a clear purpose: those who are familiar with them gain confidence. Those who take them into consideration can train their own personal leadership abilities.
Every first time offers the possibility of a second chance! This is the motto of the manager with the unmistakable penwork and the brilliant "aha!" moments, whose cartoons makes readers smile, while at the same time, in their own inimitable style, teaching them about leadership.
