9. Author’s Conclusion When you ponder on the described leadership genes, you need to be born with some of them. It is my final assertion that leaders will need to have assembled all the “Chromosomes of Leadership” if they want to go to the top. While others will stumble because they fail to match up to the awesome challenges of leadership.

10. Critical Analysis Author’s assumptions were found valid because judgment passed by him is according to his past experiences and different case studies. The writing style of the author is highly appreciable as he not only delivers his perspective but also keeps high regards of other people’s perspective. This book is a great contribution to the literature as it teaches us to rise and sustain using set of skills without any negative politics.
