Book excerpt: The Leader with Seven Faces by Leandro Herrero is a novel book on leadership with emphasis on what to practice to become a leader or to improve your own leadership skills. It maps, explores and develops the seven faces of any leader: what you say (language, meaning and intention), where you go (maps, destinations and journeys), what you build (spaces, 'homes' and legacy), what you care about (values, 'the system' and non-negotiable), how you do it (drivers, styles and structures), what you are (awareness, responsibility and identity) and what you do (role models, change and practice of leadership itself).

Book excerpt: What qualities and talents do you need to lead and transform an organization? In this comprehensive view of transformational leadership, the author argues that successful leaders focus on developing a clear set of values, purpose, and meaning for their organization. They identify an inspiring vision and set direction for the future. And they build a culture and community that supports and strengthens the rapid development and implementation of effective strategy. To address these challenges, the leader adopts seven distinct leadership roles: The purposeful leader (reinforces purpose and the meaning of work) The visionary leader (enunciates an inspiring vision and sense of direction) The strategic leader (devises a set of strategies to realize the vision) The beneficent leader (builds a strong and committed community) The adaptive leader (masters the art of initiating and managing change) The guiding leader (coaches others so they can assume leadership roles) The virtuous leader (embodies the personal qualities needed for success character, creativity, and compassion) The author demonstrates that we judge leaders best on their legacy: an organization that performs well over time. Leaders who stress short-term economic performance will not meet this standard. In fact, the great leaders build their legacy by looking beyond economics to also consider the needs of all the organization's stakeholders. Such leaders emerge when a motivated individual with the appropriate skills and virtues encounters or creates a challenging situation. The Seven Faces of Leadership combines theory and practical tools to help aspiring leaders achieve better results during challenging times of change.

Download or read book Disruptive Ideas written by Leandro Herrero and published by Meetingminds Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time when organisations simultaneously run multiple corporate initiatives and large change programmes, Disruptive Ideas tells us that - contrary to the collective mindset that says that big problems need big solutions - all you need is a small set of powerful rules to create big impact. In his previous book, Viral ChangeTM, Leandro Herrero described how a small set of behaviours, spread by a small number of people could create sustainable change. In this follow-up book, the author suggests a menu of 10 'structures', 10 'processes' and 10 'behaviours' that have the power to transform an organisation. These 30 disruptive ideas can be implemented at any time and at almost no cost; and what's more...you don't even need them all. But their compound effect - the 10+10+10 maths - will be more powerful than vast corporate programmes with dozens of objectives and efficiency targets... This book will appeal to people at different levels of management or leadership, who want to reshape their culture by enhancing working practices and in general aiming at greater organisational effectiveness. Its practical nature will appeal to all who want to implement key ideas that have the power to transform any organisation, without having to embark upon a massive change management programme.

The author takes his readers through a simplistic approach on how to relate to God in 7 relational dimensions, and challenge them to translate the result in their personal lives with others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.

Eco-leadership captures new leadership ideas and practices for twenty-first century organizations. This widely anticipated second edition has been updated in line with recent events and the latest practice and research, with end of chapter questions encouraging reflection on key issues. This insightful and inspiring text draws on Western's diverse consulting experience, combining theory and practice to offer insights into the real challenges facing leaders today. It is ideal reading for MBA and postgraduate students of Leadership, OB and HRM as well as practising managers and leaders. An electronic inspection copy is available for instructors.
Download or read book Finding a Solution to Leadership written by Niels Brabandt and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business and employee management are key subjects in business administration. For decades, actually for centuries, there has been a discussion about how effective leadership of people or employees can be realized. It has always been a major concern within market-based economic systems to learn how its products and services should be designed in order to generate consumer demand. That the discussion about business and employee management is more relevant than ever is linked to the fact that leadership situations are influenced by a variety of external factors. They include, in particular, political, cultural, social, demographic, economic, and technological developments. It is therefore required for business and employee management to be adapted to those external framework conditions on a permanent basis. In former times, the assumption in mainstream leadership research was that leadership success relied on specific personal characteristics. Later on, the prevailing view was that the decisive factors in employee management lied in specific leadership behavior or leadership styles. Today's research on leadership is dominated by situation-oriented approaches, providing for specific leadership concepts for specific organizational and employee-related structures. The present thesis is an attempt to bundle a variety of approaches to leadership with the aim of providing an overarching framework for concepts of a similar nature. Therefore, the leadership concept to be developed in what follows is to be characterized by the principles of holism and sustainability. The first step is to present the fundamentals of leadership and management in order to introduce key terms and concepts and provide an overview of the research on leadership. Chapter 3 deals with separately displaying the business and employee management approaches of various management pioneers, distinguishing between early and con-temporary pioneers. Each approach is presented in consideration of its key elements, its strengths and opportunities, as well as its weaknesses and limitations. The fourth chapter, finally, is devoted to developing a holistic and sustainable leader-ship concept.
