"Competitive Advantage is the holy grail of all companies today, but how do you achieve competitive advantage? One of the most effective and sustainable ways is through your people. If you can inspire, motivate and energise your people around the collective success of the organisation magic can happen. Using the principles described in this book you can meet and impact your employees, customers and investors and achieve competitive advantage and create a better future for your organisation. It all starts with making meetings deliver your desired outcomes.
