Hi Friend

Hope you had a brilliant Easter. I ate way too many chocolate eggs and took a few days to unwind and relax with some good books. It was a lovely break!

This week we are continuing our April theme of taking responsibility by looking at taking responsibility for leadership.

Leadership is something tricky to define - we know it when we see it, yet we can't see when we are acting less of a leader and more of a manager with our team. This week we look at the whole issue of responsibility and leadership - and why the two get mixed up.

We then look at online leadership and why being first is not necessarily the best thing to do for your business.

Our business of the week is one that has shown some great leadership in teaching people the art of copywriting.
