Download or read book Leaders Eat Last written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally in paperback: the New York Times bestseller by the acclaimed, bestselling author of Start With Why and Together is Better. Now with an expanded chapter and appendix on leading millennials, based on Simon Sinek's viral video "Millenials in the workplace" (150+ million views). Imagine a world where almost everyone wakes up inspired to go to work, feels trusted and valued during the day, then returns home feeling fulfilled. This is not a crazy, idealized notion. Today, in many successful organizations, great leaders create environments in which people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In his work with organizations around the world, Simon Sinek noticed that some teams trust each other so deeply that they would literally put their lives on the line for each other. Other teams, no matter what incentives are offered, are doomed to infighting, fragmentation and failure. Why? The answer became clear during a conversation with a Marine Corps general. "Officers eat last," he said. Sinek watched as the most junior Marines ate first while the most senior Marines took their place at the back of the line. What's symbolic in the chow hall is deadly serious on the battlefield: Great leaders sacrifice their own comfort--even their own survival--for the good of those in their care. Too many workplaces are driven by cynicism, paranoia, and self-interest. But the best ones foster trust and cooperation because their leaders build what Sinek calls a "Circle of Safety" that separates the security inside the team from the challenges outside. Sinek illustrates his ideas with fascinating true stories that range from the military to big business, from government to investment banking.

There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column.

It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
Download or read book Start with Why written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational bestseller that ignited a movement and asked us to find our WHY Discover the book that is captivating millions on TikTok and that served as the basis for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time—with more than 56 million views and counting. Over a decade ago, Simon Sinek started a movement that inspired millions to demand purpose at work, to ask what was the WHY of their organization. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, and these ideas remain as relevant and timely as ever. START WITH WHY asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Download or read book WHY DO WE CALL THEM LEADERS written by Rande Somma and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is about the leadership culture in America today where a leader choosing their self-interest over their stated duties and obligations has, over time, morphed from being the exception to today it being the norm. The author, Rande Somma, suggests that those individuals are not worthy of being called a leader of any kind. More appropriately they should be referred to as frauds. There are many good leadership “how to” books on the market today. However, through Rande’s personal experiences, there is a huge separation between words describing what leaders should be doing as compared to their real agenda and behavior… talk the talk versus walk the talk. Rande personally led a Fortune 100 international business where he and his team made the commitment to meet financial objectives by operating through the company’s Core Values, including Integrity and Our People, and not by ignoring them. The company’s performance was exceptional however, more importantly, because the results were legitimate. After moving into leadership positions in a variety of different organizations in an oversight role, Rande takes the reader into the board rooms and private conversations where he unexpectedly discovered that what he experience in the company that he led was an exception and not at all typical. Based on Rande’s observations over time he leads the reader through the logic where he concludes that “Wrong” has shifted to being “Wrong but Acceptable” and consequently “Right” shifted be being merely an inconvenience, maybe even a threat. So, because of the erosion of the standards frauds fall into the “Qualified” category. And frauds have no problem complying with the disgusting associated operating behavior because they place no value on integrity, honor or shame. The book contends that there has been another critical shift in America’s leadership culture today. While there have always been organizations where we expected frauds to exist, ie. Politics, Corporate America and Religion, the book expresses an observation that organizations that we never would have thought would be infected the culture of frauds have indeed been infected. For example, institutions such as the Media, Military, Justice, Academia, and yes to some degree even parents. Rande presents the case that this corrupt standard of today’s leadership culture is spreading. Its adoption is gaining momentum and becoming deeply rooted. Rande expresses a sense of urgency and a need for a reset before our country hits a point where a correction is no longer an option. The book offers some ideas on things that could be done to begin to move the needle back in the right direction.
