Leadership: Power and Consequences
by Sy OgulnickAdvice for leaders in every arena of life on facilitating problem solving, creativity, innovation, and a sense of mutual ownership. The answer to resolving a problem in any relationship is likely found where the power is located. Who are the true leaders, what are their expectations, and how well do they communicate with those they lead? And, how well and candidly do those significant to the leader communicate back? This is where trust, safety and respect play a huge role in how the relationship plays out and either grows, mutually, or is destructive, mutually. Most leaders tend to communicate badly, have unspoken or inflexible expectations towards those they lead and blame others for their own failings. Leadership: Power and Consequences confronts this problem of leadership directly and clearly by using Sy Ogulnick&’s personally experienced stories. He clearly describes the path leaders must take if they are to personally grow, to understand themselves better, and to contribute to the growth of those they lead. When authentic communication takes place between those in power and those immediately at the effect of this power, trust, safety, and respect are felt by everyone involved. This must be found in the environment or genuine dialogue between them is impossible and will not, even at the point of a gun, take place. And it is the leaders who are primarily responsible for the creation of the environment. Words do not make it so, but action (behavior of the leaders) does.
Leadership: Leaders, Followers, and Environments
by Arthur PadillaLeadership is a “process,” not a person. In Leadership, author Art Padilla asserts that the dynamics of leadership involve leaders, followers and their environments—the organizational contexts within which leading and following take place. This triangle approach illustrates a more holistic and comprehensive view of leadership by focusing on all three dynamics.While infused with the most contemporary research and latest theories, material comes to life through chapter inserts and mini cases featuring themes that leaders and followers regularly encounter, such as: mentoring and developing talent, ethics, integrity and credibility, teams, and toxic leadership.Using the most current examples to demonstrate concepts, the author encourages students to perceive instances of leadership, and the leaders, followers and environments that make them relevant.

Leadership: No More Heroes
by David Pendleton Adrian F. Furnham Jonathan CowellLeadership is most needed in times of change, uncertainty and crisis. We are living through those times. To support leaders in all spheres, this book provides a guide to the territory of leadership and its three domains: the strategic (head), the operational (hands) and the interpersonal (heart). It describes the tasks leaders have to achieve and explains the psychology of leadership based in personality. It argues strongly that complete leadership is the province of diverse teams of leaders made up of complementary differences. And now the best has just got better. The new edition shows how leadership has to change over time, describes how the most highly rated leaders achieve their goals and also elucidates the neuroscience of leadership to enhance understanding of leadership’s foundations. Pendleton, Furnham and Cowell’s work is a powerful combination of the best research on the psychology of leadership and years of iteration and practical implementation in the field – working with thousands of leaders from all walks of life and learning from their successes and challenges. There is no one secret recipe for success as a leader. What this book provides is a framework to enable you to achieve success in your own way.

by Archie RidgwayLe credenze in cui siamo nati e cresciuti spesso ci alienano molte possibilità e opportunità. Queste lenti cui siamo abituati ci rendono ciechi alla verità. E' giunto il momento di togliere questi occhiali e vedere realmente il mondo esterno e raccogliere le deliziose opportunità che non avremmo creduto poter essere nostre. Questo libro ti aiuterà a sviluppare la tua presenza come leader. L'autore offre uno schema semplice e avvincente così come pratiche per sviluppare la tua "firma vocale". Ovunque tu sieda all'interno di un'organizzazione, puoi sviluppare presenza se sei in grado di far bene due cose: dimostrare il tuo valore e le tue caratteristiche autentiche e connetterti con gli altri in modo positivo. I leader in grado di essere autentici mentre si connettono e hanno un impatto sugli altri possiedono ciò che gli autori chiamano una firma vocale - un mezzo di autoespressione che è unicamente e distintamente il tuo. Una volta che fai tua ed esprimi quest'abilità incalcolabile, non crederai al tremendo impatto che puoi suscitare intorno a te. Ricco di storie di vita vissuta e di esempi, Own the Room demistificherà la nozione di presenza e fornirà consigli pratici su come svilupparla.
