What are the key skills that are needed for a successful leader? Knowing how to influence and lead others, often without direct authority, is critical in successfully managing projects. Most of us aren't natural leaders. The good news is that leadership skills can be learned. The best makes the journey from manager to leader using their innate talents and through continuous learning and improvement. Don't rely on the school of hard knocks. Discover the secrets to exceptional leadership and the mistakes to avoid on your own road to success.
