David Heenan, Trustee, James Campbell Estate

In his new book, Hidden Heroes: Finding Success in the Shadows, he examines ten sets of extraordinary servant leaders, from both history and contemporary life, in business, education, entertainment and sports. His subjects demonstrate how business and society can reap rich rewards by unleashing those who focus on others rather than themselves, and how individuals and organizations can benefit from a more inclusive, less celebrity-oriented view of leadership.
