Sex, Leadership and Rock’n’Roll synthesises leading edge thinking on leadership, creativity, innovation, relationships, motivation, high performance and change with music, balancing visionary thinking with earthy pragmatism. Imagine a business guru met Madonna, Meatloaf, Mozart, Motorhead et al for a dialogue on these topics and you have an idea of what makes this book unique. It's MBA level thinking mixed with rock and pop culture! Take a look at some extracts:

Tom Peters Top business thinker, speaker and author of 'In Search of Excellence', 'Thriving on Chaos' and 'The Little Big Things' said: "None would doubt that we live in a Rock’n’Roll Age - so what makes more sense than a brilliant, original, rockin' Rock’n’Roll model of business management and leadership? Sex, Leadership and Rock’n’Roll is a marvellous book, which closes the door on the tidy, hierarchical, know-your-place 'Orchestral Age' and ushers in a new, creative era of challenge and change. Hooray!"

Sarah Goodwin, Chair of the Institute of Business Consultants thought: Fun, funky and focused - a heady combination that made for a great romping read. Using an eclectic range of musical metaphors, supported by real substance and underlying understanding of the issues at the heart of true dynamic and effective leadership, Peter Cook really brings this read to life. The eye catching, enticing title does not disappoint, nor does the aligning of sex, rock and roll, and indeed music of many genres, with our experiences of leadership in the business world: you will be stirred, engaged, enraged and indeed amused in different ways. Do not however underestimate the power of the message underlying the metaphor.
