About the Author
Langley Sharp MBE was head of the Centre for Army Leadership, part of the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, responsible for championing leadership excellence across the British Army. Having himself graduated from Sandhurst two decades ago, his service in the Parachute Regiment, which included operational command at every rank, saw him deployed to Northern Ireland, Macedonia, Afghanistan and Iraq. Among his many varied roles, he led a counter-insurgency Task Force operation, commanded a Parachute Regiment Battalion and delivered the Ministry of Defence's training programme for the London 2012 Olympics, for which he was awarded an MBE. He retired from the British Army in 2022 after 23 years of service. This is his first book.
