Find out how to lead without conflict with these ancient bestselling personal development guides.

These luxury hardback editions are now available in a set as a keepsake for yourself or as a present for your friends and family.

Containing essential advice for leaders and managers that still resonates 2,500 years later, The Art of War brings a different way of seeing conflict, teaching us that with enough intelligence, it is possible to conquer with a minimum of force and little destruction to gain a ‘win-win’ outcome. This means not just defeating a person in an argument, but bringing them over to our way of thinking.

Tao Te Ching focuses on attunement, rather than mindless striving, offering an alternative to command-and-control leadership and a different way of seeing personal success. This position has led to this ancient Chinese text becoming an internationally bestselling leadership guide.

Sun Tzu and Lao Tzu: The Ancient Classics Collection: The Art of War and Tao Te Ching offers:

  • Lessons for managers and business leaders
  • Strategies for survival and success in difficult times
  • Advice on how to conquer with minimal destruction and conflict
  • An introduction from Tom Butler Bowdon, the personal development literature expert
