Download or read book The Measure of a Leader written by Vinnie Venturella and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2024-07-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 3Cs are the measure of a leader. Character, Competence, and Commitment form the core, the anchor, the foundation of any leader. They can be visualized as a triangle-foundational, connected, and strong. The expectation is each of the 3Cs is positive, uplifting, good, righteous, wholesome, and for the betterment of others. I have been in a leadership environment since 1985, and in my experience and study, the 3Cs form a 'must-have' calculus for every leader. A great leader must exemplify the good qualities and traits of Character, Competence, and Commitment to be successful. What do people say about you when you're not around? That's your character (good or bad). Do you have any street cred? How much? That is your competence. Do you do your duty, no matter what? That is your commitment. In this project, I do a deep dive into the 3Cs with 60 leaders from the past and the present-including 38 men and 22 women-that each highlight a specific trait, quality, or behavior. I hope you get as much out of reading and learning about each person and their experiences, as I did in researching and writing this book. We all can learn so much from those that came before us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proven leadership lessons from the author of the international bestseller The Welch Way Techniques Jack Welch used to create great leaders and drive unprecedented financial performance Jack Welch and GE used the celebrated 4e model to measure leadership potential and enhance profitability at every level of the organization. Jack Welch and the 4 E's of Leadership delivers a thought-provoking and in-depth analysis of this signature model. Pragmatic and handson, it explains how the model helped Welch to consistently spot 4e leaders--individuals with energy, the ability to inspire others, and the talent to consistently make the difficult decisions and meet financial goals. Jack Welch and the 4 E's of Leadership reveals how the 4e model helped GE's best and brightest eliminate bureaucracy, hire and promote energetic people, find new ways to increase the organization's customer-centricity, and more. Beyond the nuts and bolts of the 4e model, however, it outlines a step-by-step blueprint anyone can follow to stock an organization with performance-ready leaders and leaders-in-training. Examples include: How to recognize and encourage each of the 4e's--Energy, Energizers, Edge, and Execute Leadership theories of Drucker, Senge, and others, and how they support and validate Welch's 4e model Seven rules for successfully driving change, and leveraging it to gain long-term competitive advantage Leadership lessons of the 4e all-star executive team Valuable implementation insights on virtually every page, along with a "4e leader to-do" list Jack Welch is universally recognized as the greatest CEO of his era. In Jack Welch and the 4 E's of Leadership, bestselling author Jeffrey A. Krames examines Welch's seminal 4e leadership model and provides a penetrating and uncompromising look at how to recognize and develop authentic leaders.

Download or read book Basic Group Processes written by P. B. Paulus and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on groups has been a major focus of concern among psychologists and sociologists for many years. The study of groups certainly deserves a central role in these disciplines since much of our behavior occurs in groups and many important social phenomena involve groups. Issues such as leadership, conformity, group decision-making, group task performance, and coalition formation have had a long history of research. However, recently a number of other areas of research have blossomed that provide interesting new perspectives on group processes (e.g., social impact). In addition, topics of research have developed outside the commonly ac cepted domain of group dynamics (e.g., self-disclosure) which seem to be concerned with rather basic group processes. Basic Group Processes was designed to bring together in one volume a repre sentative sample of the broad range of work currently being done in the area of groups. Some of the chapters provide a review of the literature while others focus more specifically on current programs of research. All, however, provide new insights into basic group processes and a number provide broad integrative schemes. All of the authors were asked to emphasize theoretical issues rather than a detailed presenta tion of research. Basic Group Processes suggests that research on groups is a lively enterprise and forging interesting new theoretical and empirical directions.
