Publisher's summary

The Image of Leadership is the result of Sylvie di Giusto's journey through two career paths: one in the field of human resources, the other as a professional image consultant. The title reflects the reality that true leadership manifests itself in ways that are both seen and unseen.

This book will take you step by step through the development of your professional imprint. The focus will be on all of those things that people perceive about you, with an emphasis on your appearance and your image. By all means, it's not a how-to book, because there simply is no one-size-fits-all formula for a look of leadership. Instead this book provides you with a deep understanding of the most important concepts to achieve your image of leadership. Because:

  • You have to create your own professional imprint, which is true to your personality and which works for the duration of your long career.
  • You have to appear confident, authentic, professional, and respectful to be perceived as a leader - no matter your height, weight, color, age, or gender.
  • You have to look like a leader long before you are one.
  • You have only seven seconds to create an imprint of leadership.
  • You have to show people your leadership every day, consistently.
  • You and only you can choose to present yourself as a leader or not.

This book is written to be entertaining for leaders at all levels. You'll encounter hard data drawn from Sylvie's research, and she shares countless stories from her 20 years of experience in corporations around the world while proving her theories with people who are currently in the public eye. There is no other book that encourages you to learn about your image from famous politicians, CEOs, and pop stars at the same time.

Don't even waste your time

... unless you want to only and solely hear about dress code. I made it to chapter 5 and that's literally ALL she discussed. Yes, appearance is key, but it certainly is not EVERYTHING. Especially since we live in a virtual world( I get this book was published in 2015, but still). I was looking more for exuding self confidence, tips on public speaking, etc. If you want to constantly hear about Chris Christie and Barack Obama, and how they dress... then go for it. A wasted credit!!
