Synopsis:
Me? Leading?
A book on the direction of life by talking about the direction of the company.
Running a business means giving meaning to professional lives.
Whether we are leaders or not, all of our lives are long-lasting enterprises. They lead us somewhere with more or less efforts and means, more or less well coordinated.
What goes for business leaders, goes for all of us.
Why do some believe in you?
It could have started like this: Why me?
We have all been, at one time or another, pushed by others to face a huge challenge.
What makes it me and not someone else?
A senior executive in her company, Michelle V. is approached to become its future general manager (CEO). This good news is a source of joy, then of doubt.
The forty-year-old then decides to see a man who had advised her twelve years earlier when she was promoted, for the first time, to a management position. She invites him for lunch in one of the great restaurants in town. The meeting will not go unanswered.
The book reports the exchange between Michelle and this man who thinks while making people think. The free form of dialogue is in the spirit of this sharing of ideas and doubts, experiences and knowledge.
