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.

Download or read book Exploring Great Leadership written by R. Lynn Wilson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just like you don’t have to be a CEO to be a great leader, you don’t have to be a great leader to achieve personal success. ... I have said that income, wealth, position, and status are not measures of great leadership. They are not measures of personal success either. Personal success is achieved through honoring and respecting those around you (including family, friends, fellow employees, and others), always being ethical at work and in your personal life, channeling your motivation and desires toward specific career and personal goals (which are compatible with your mental being), and being willing to pay the price of achieving those goals through sacrifice and hard work. Those who do that will find their niche for success and achieve it. Another significant point I want to make is the importance of enthusiasm and a positive attitude to achieve that success, especially when things are not going exactly as you envisioned or planned, which will inevitably happen. Most leadership books share “ten steps for success,” “five things to never forget,” and other such formulas. Someone who wants to become a great leader must truly understand the psychology and practice of great leadership. Leadership ability is obtained by having the necessary psychological makeup, knowing one’s self, love of work, honoring others, personal sacrifice, and having fun in the workplace. Ignoring, minimizing, or mismanaging the human side of management creates suspicion, fear, and failure in the workplace. Take a practical look at leadership from the inside of an organization, and discover how to build positive and effective relationships. Whether you’re a great leader striving to be better, someone wanting to be a great leader, or an individual seeking to achieve your personal and professional dreams in life, you can find the inspiration to accomplish your goals through Exploring Great Leadership.

Download or read book Great Leader Dear Leader written by Bertil Lintner and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Leader, Dear Leader is an absorbing expose of North Korea under the Kim clan--Great Leader Kim Il Sung and his son, Dear Leader Kim Jong Il. It traces the origin of the regime's ideology and investigates its attempts to fill the empty state coffers through missile technology sales and other unorthodox schemes. It examines the regime's relations with South Korea, the countrywide famine and the juche ideal, the "military first" policy, and the nuclear weapons program. Bertil Lintner, one of the very few Western journalists to visit North Korea in 2004, aims to demystify rather than demonize the least known of the "axis of evil" countries by interviewing Koreans from both sides of the divided peninsula as well as ethnic Koreans in Japan and leading Korea experts outside the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed Inda series within Sherwood Smith's epic fantasy Sartorias-deles universe • Military fantasy woven with courtly politics, vast worldbuilding, and diverse characters Inda was the second son of the prince and princess of Choraed Elgaer. It had been Inda's fate, as second son, to be his family's Shield Arm and spend his adult life protecting the lands his brother would one day inherit. But powerful factions in the royal court were committed to seeing Inda fail. For eight difficult years, Inda had been at sea, using an assumed name and forcing himself to never think of all he had lost. And he had created a new life, for the military skills that had been trained into him and his own inborn leadership ability could not be erased. After founding a mercenary marine company, he had earned a reputation for defeating dangerous pirate fleets. When Inda discovers that his home country is about to be attacked from the sea by an ancient enemy, he throws his carefully guarded anonymity to the winds and returns home. After nearly a decade at sea, Inda finds his home utterly changed. His good friend Evred, the formerly powerless and harassed younger prince, is now king. Evred has heard of Inda's martial accomplishments at sea, and is determined to make Inda his Royal Shield Arm—the person in charge of defending the entire kingdom. Though Inda is skilled, his experience is entirely naval. Can a former pirate captain alter his tactics to become a successful ground commander in time to save his endangered homeland?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My heart. (Acts 13:22) Business leaders face perplexing challenges to succeed in the marketplace, they make difficult decisions affecting the lives of their employees, and they inspire their staff to give their best. They experience triumphs and defeats, elation and agony, real wins and real losses. And while the Bible doesn’t give us a manual for business leadership, it does give us a window into the heart after God’s heart, the heart of King David. He faced similar challenges as a gifted tactician, strategist, and ruler, and he was very far from perfect. As David walked through his leadership challenges and his personal failures, he communicated his heart in his psalms. Many business leaders today apply the principles of the ancient Chinese general Sun Tzu from The Art of War to their business. In fact, legions of Sun Tzu devotees are out there applying the principles of a pagan conqueror to attack the marketplace for personal gain. How much better to consider the brilliance of God’s conqueror King David, a man after His own heart? David’s psalms are poetic expressions of this heart. Furthermore, his psalms continue to be “living and active” (Hebrews 4:12) as they are indeed part of the living and active Word of God for business leaders today. No followers of Sun Tzu would dare to make such an amazing claim. Business after God’s Heart challenges the heart of the business leader to follow after the heart of God, as it is revealed in the psalms of David. And ultimately, as the leader’s personal engagement in business flows from this heart, it will yield the fruit of Business after God’s Heart.
