Abstract
She inherited a business in trouble. Burdened by runaway inflation and a debased currency, bereft of strategic alliances, torn by internal dissent, and eyed greedily by competitors bent on takeover, her business--England--was on the brink of ruin. Forty-five years later, England was the richest and most powerful nation in Europe and well on its way to becoming a great empire. How did she do it? This book condenses Elizabeth's leadership wizardry into management lessons today's leaders can employ in their own quests for excellence and supremacy. Anyone in a leadership role will find much to emulate in Elizabeth's long, challenging, and highly successful reign, including strategies for developing and communicating a vision of excellence, nurturing creativity, turning crisis into triumph, and creating common cause without tyranny. Be inspired by the beloved monarch who built an empire and shaped the enduring destiny of a people.--From publisher description.
