    Just saw this. Congratulations Dr. Dorothy Peters-Nicholls. Leadership is the most studied and least understood in the behavior science. I am happy to have an Antiguan and Barbudan contributing to the leadership literature. Your practical application in your workplace and organizations is your next journey. All the best.
