Karin Zastrow is an expert in leadership and organisational development. After being one of the first women to top up her education with an international MBA from INSEAD, she turned her focus to consulting and leadership development. Karin's almost 30 years of experience covers all aspects of leadership development. In recent years she's been a lecturer at EXED/SSE in Sweden, Tecnologico de Monterrey in Mexico, HULT Shanghai and University of Porto. Karin started the development of Direct Leadership® when - to her horror - she realized that even the most successful program of her career did not make a significant impact on leadership performance. Somehow there was a missing link in the field of leadership development. This book explains this missing link. It describes - in clear and plain words - why leaders must Catch the Leadership Opportunities to Engage People. And it translates the value of all other competencies the leader holds into clear and visible day-to-day interaction with the employees.
