|
Leadership is both an art and a science. Effective leaders combine scientific principles with artistic flair and charisma to guide their organizations. They know when to apply specific techniques to reach desired results, while keeping workers happy and willing to do what must be done. This book provides a slightly different look at leadership and organizations to help you see how effective leadership is steering, not pushing or pulling. The smooth, even motions of steering help you – the leader – reach your desired goals by avoiding potholes and obstacles. Take a little time to read it to see… • The three primary functions of leaders • How other leadership models fail • Why inspiring shared values and vision help the organization roll by itself • How to decide how you will lead, regardless of how your boss may behave You will also read some leadership lessons learned through years of observation and practice, provided to assure you that you are not alone in your leadership journey.
