Leaders in Lockdown: Inside Stories of Covid-19 and The New World of Business by Atholl Duncan

BATB score: 3/10 😒

This book incorporates 28 interview with 28 global top leaders on their business strategic thoughts with Covid19. Interviews were conducted in 2020 so most leaders were still exceptionally optimistic.

Best as: this book is like Where is Waldo? but Where is the point? kinda twist; mostly every interview has one key kicker comment that’s quotable, the rest is shit

Best to: just read the last chapter (chapter 29 - last 9 pages) of the book at the bookstore; that’s pretty much the main gist

Best for: now why did Thailand ousted ex-prime minister (Thaksin Shinawatra) recommend this book again?

Best quotes: “When you are kind you go from being a successful leader to being a significant leader.”

“Leaders recognize how to be resilient and absorb the negative stress and turn it into positive energy.”

“We are moving from a demanding role to a convincing role.”

“But we are judged as leaders not on what we are like when the going is good; we are judged as leaders on what we are like when the going is tough.
