Download or read book Show Up Step Up Step Out Leadership Through a New Lens written by Neena S. Newberry and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Give Neena Newberry five minutes, and she'll show you a new way to become a better leader. Then she'll show you another one. And another one. That's because each chapter of Newberry's book — Show Up. Step Up. Step Out. Leadership Through a New Lens — takes less than five minutes to read. And each chapter identifies a proven strategy to help leaders take their business results and careers to the next level. Why “a new lens”? Drawing from more than 20 years of experience in the corporate world, Newberry noticed that people do not always see the opportunities in front of them, put what they know into play, or consistently focus on what really gets results. Newberry invites you to question your leadership — literally. Many of her chapter titles address key questions related to your career: “Is self-care really selfish?” “What's getting in the way of your success?” “Do you recognize the impact of your strengths?” “Can you afford not to ask for help?” “Are you missing the two most important steps in giving feedback?” And “what guides your leadership?” What do readers say? Here's a representative quote from Colleen Barrett, president emeritus of Southwest Airlines: “I think Neena hit a home run with this book, and I hope you will enjoy looking through her 'new lens.'” Refocus your vision to achieve leadership success today with Show Up. Step Up. Step Out.Neena Newberry is president of the Dallas-based professional leadership development company Newberry Executive Solutions (www.newberrysolutions.com), author of the WOW! Women On the Way to Peak Performance Program and the book Show Up. Step Up. Step Out., an experienced executive with Deloitte, adjunct professor at SMU Cox School of Business Executive Education, a champion of education reform, and an active board member of several nonprofit organizations.
Download or read book Be BIG written by Judith Katz and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2008-08-01 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many people have decided that the safest way to get through life is to be small. They try not to attract attention to themselves, just tending their own safe little garden. They've decided it's too dangerous to think big, to speak out, to take risks. They might get shot down. Or look foolish. People will think they're just not good enough. But, particularly today, organizations need people to step up and be BIG. We need new ideas, new products, new processes. People have to bring more of themselves to the workplace, to contribute more, and to have a bigger impact on the success of the organization. This inspiring illustrated book challenges all of us to show up more fully as individuals and in our interactions with others and to find ways to be BIG together. In straightforward, incisive language, Judith Katz and Frederick Miller help us understand all of the many, sometimes subtle ways we make ourselves small. They show how we make others small as well and how these same attitudes can keep us from working together effectively. And they encourage us to nourish new attitudes that will make us, our coworkers, and our organizations bigger. Be BIG invites us to bring more of ourselves to each situation—whether working independently, with another individual, or with a group—so that we can do our best work together.

Based on their own research and extensive client work, Evans and Foster identify six regularly occurring moments and help you understand how to act wisely and decisively when those moments arise, showing how to: Get Angry, Not Stupid Avoid Terminal Politeness Decide Already Act When You are the Problem Leverage Pessimism Reverse Momentum Anyone can take advantage of opportunities to act as a leader when the time is right—and reap the rewards.

There’s a self-assessment at the beginning of the book to suggest specific chapters that fit your developmental needs. No one is going to just hand that next promotion.
