Michelle Dale Of Virtual Miss Friday Introduces A New Ground-Breaking Resource, “Virtues And Vices Of Exceptional Leaders”

(Monday, December 10th, 2012) United Kingdom - Michelle Dale of Virtual Miss Friday says: “In Virtues and Vices, Pete Ashby takes us on an intriguing journey of discovery. He contends that if we are to aspire to become exceptional leaders - in whatever sphere we are in - we need to be careful. We need to be able to keep our behaviours in check, to ensure that we don’t waiver and allow our vices to invade our virtuous space. Pete illustrates how it is so easy to set your sights on being a virtuous leader but not be aware of the fact that you are slipping and letting some of your vices show through. Exceptional leaders can easily sway from a virtue to a vice and back again, rather quickly, without even knowing it.”


Host Michelle Dale says: “Additional challenges are faced by leaders who behave in this way. The people with whom they surround themselves are not sure how to deal with this fluctuating behaviour and will often not challenge the leader, due to preconceived notions or due to the way that the leader has allowed a hierarchical structure to develop. Pete further contends that the people who work most closely with you may simply “dance” around you, telling you what they think you want to hear.”


At this point Michelle Dale goes on to say: “Strong leaders do not simply guess what impact they are having on others, they draw people out carefully and often informally, so that they get the face to face feedback that is in itself vital for the ongoing strength of the organisation.”


Michelle, founder of the very popular Virtually Anywhere Series in closing says: “Intriguing thoughts. This e-book is certain to make business leaders everywhere pause in their tracks and reassess their own behaviours.”
