When the going gets tough, the tough get going. In any business climate, real leaders prove themselves when the chips are down: when they are able to motivate a team to meet a tough deadline, when they can improve performance when budgets are cut, when they can inspire and encourage a team when they are behind deadline and running over budget. In Thrive on Pressure, Graham Jones, Ph.D., a psychologist whose work has been published in Harvard Business Review, first shows readers the traits and mindsets they need to develop in order to become "real" leaders; the kind of leaders that do not crumble when things hit the fan.
