Extra! How cool is this? “Why Do YOU Have to Lead?” is translated to Turkish and is reprinted with permission in HRdergi Magazine, November 2007 issue. This is the HR magazine in Turkey. I can’t understand a word it says except my name but it is the first time any of my writings have been translated to another language. If you want to see the translated article, here it is. **NOT FOR REPRODUCTION OR RE-USE.**
