The first part of "Leading up, down and across" contains amusing anecdotes from Hekker's time in the Royal Navy. These stories are examples of good and bad leadership. Read about wooden window carpentry underwater, a hierarchical Spanish chef and how a naval officer ends up in the Afghan desert. Hekker's brief analyses of each story connects these examples to leadership outside the military as well. The second part of the book lays out the LiDRS model. In easily understandable language, Hekker lays a foundation for an individual to develop their own style of leadership, using key leadership features and building blocks. The online version of the model allows readers to test their own skills as a leader and decide where to make adjustments in a given situation. This allows readers to actively direct to the way in which they lead, while also providing an opportunity to learn from others. In addition to compelling stories and the leadership model, Hekker offers many practical tips to help you as a leader. "Leading up, down and across" provides tools for leaders at all levels to help them find the leadership attributes that are best for them and their situation. This makes "Leading up, down and across" an indispensable resource for the ambitious leader!
