"The world needs as much of Angus McLeod as he can share...I think what he brings to the table is an alternative to the command and control approach to leadership and development, and that caring and concern can be an effective alternative to 'kicking ass'." Jim Brush, imarkup.com
 

Angus is a master-coach and author of ‘Performance Coaching’ (2003)' and ‘Me, Myself, My Team’ (2000 and 2006) both from Crown House.
