Nelson's Way brings 'the Nelson Touch' - his vision, courage, and above all, leadership skills to a new generation.

With contributions from well-known leadership experts including Sir John Harvey-Jones, Admiral Sir Jonathon Band, John Adair, Greg Dyke and Dr Henry Mintzberg, Nelson_s Way incorporates the latest research and joins a series of ground-breaking studies applying historical biography to leadership. The book delivers radical new insights into Nelson, his heroic exploits and legendary leadership skills, his passions, sacrifices and victories.

Against the backdrop of the high seas in the Napoleonic wars, Jones and Gosling explain how Nelson dedicated himself completely to his profession and beloved Navy. A manager as well as an inspiring leader, he was concerned about every ship and every seaman, as well as honour and glory. Always visible, he led from the front. A participative rather than directive leader, sharing the excitement and initiative of command, he nevertheless bore final responsibility. Prepared to die for the cause, he was a legend in his lifetime.

Now everyone can be inspired by Nelson's legend and aspiring leaders can learn how to recreate 'the Nelson Touch'.
