The author
Ralf Schneider
Ralf Schneider has spent more than two decades working with executives and boards across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, including senior HR leadership roles at PwC and HSBC. His research on leadership courage, including a four-year study of 191 senior executives assessed by 1,868 observers, found that the decisive factor in leadership effectiveness is not knowledge but the willingness to act on it. He is the creator of the Four Steps of Courage framework and the Courage Assessment. Courage: Mind the Gap is his first book; the research-based methodology book, The Courage Factor, follows. Born in Germany, he lives in Dubai.
