Major-General John Cantwell’s résumé shows he is certainly more qualified than most to talk about leadership. He commanded forces in Iraq and Afghanistan and was deputy chief of the Australian Army. The bestselling author of Exit Wounds has written a new book that applies the lessons he learned on the frontline of battle to everyday life. Leadership in Action is a guide for developing a leadership style that garners respect and loyalty, not just compliance. Join John as he shares his insights on everyday leadership with Ross Coulthart.
