Leadership is about emotional connections; it is about trust; it is about being authentic. John Cantwell knows this from almost forty years of leading men and women in some of the toughest situations imaginable. Now he reveals all he has learned about leadership during his rise through the ranks from Private to General in the Australian Army. Leadership in Action describes the skills needed to build loyalty, teamwork, decisiveness and dozens of other vital ingredients for success, and shows how they connect to create true leadership. Filled with specific guidance and examples for leaders in all walks of life, Leadership in Action presents a unique framework of leadership techniques that work in any situation.
In globalising economies, particularly those going through a process of economic integration such as those economies within the EU, regions forge an increasing number of linkages with other locations within and across national borders. This is largely carried out by the technological efforts of Multinational Corporations (MNCs). This book explores the regional dimension of Europe in terms of localised technological comparative advantages and the location of innovative activities by MNCs. Using an empirical analysis John Cantwell and Simona Iammarino cover such important themes as: *MNC technological activities and economic wealth *MNCs and the regional systems of innovation in Italy, UK, Germany and France *the geographical hierarchy across European national borders.

When John Cantwell assumed the bishopric of Meath in 1830, he inherited grave political, social, theological, and ecclesiastical problems caused by an English State and an Irish Church. In the 1840s he also had to endure the loss of 114,000 of the faithful in the Irish Famine and the resulting chaos. How Cantwell, a pragmatist but also a skilled tactician, managed to lead his flock for those thirty- six years shows that the Church and State in Ireland were anything but temperate, cooperative or monolithic.
