Book excerpt: No matter the gender, skin color, or race of a person I find myself mentoring, particularly in my role as an academic, I strive to support each person in reaching his or her full potential (as far as I can take that person). I desire to see the individuals I'm privileged to lead grow in such a way that they can confidently pursue any opportunity that crosses their path and eventually become strong, effective leaders themselves. I seek to aid those in which I come upon to bravely tackle and break through the barriers they will undoubtedly face in their personal and professional journeys and develop to become the kind of leaders who are servants thereby leading with power and compassion, and moreover getting the respect they deserve. Because of my background and experiences, I do have an affinity for African American women leaders-born and taught, past, present, and future. That's the primary reason for this book. And yes, my drive to influence African American women leaders is a bit personal. This book will focus on what it takes to be an effective leader. It will examine the inner soul work that is imperative for leaders to do in an effort to lead and care for the souls of others well. We will also explore the hard and soft skills required to lead successfully. My hope for every reader is that you will walk away with a clear understanding of what's expected of you as a leader. Likewise, I want you to gain the knowledge that leadership is a service and not a privilege. Finally, it may seem as though the book is solely written for black women, as I do reference this population a great deal; however, don't judge a book by its cover. This book is for anyone with an interest in leading effectively.

Download or read book Influence Redefined written by Stacey Hanke and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you feel confident you're a leader with influence? You may be surprised to discover you're not as influential as you think you are. Your team is only as strong as your influence, and many leaders today are mistaken about what it means to be influential. An outdated influence paradigm, along with technological devices and distractions, is making it increasingly challenging for leaders to reach those they need to influence in order to be successful. In fact, many leaders are unwillingly and unknowingly sabotaging themselves and their influence. In her thought-provoking Influence Redefined, Stacey Hanke introduces her powerful Influence Model, a step-by-step method for improving communication and producing the ideal type of influence—one that moves people to action long after an interaction is over. She dispels the most common influence myths and instructs leaders on how to stop sabotaging themselves in order to leave a positive, lasting impression. Using a results-based definition of influence for individuals and organizations, Hanke successfully shows leaders how they can develop influence as a skill through self-awareness, consistency, a positive reputation, adaptability, and impact. With insights from dozens of executives and business leaders, as well as practical how-tos and action steps, Influence Redefined will help leaders multiply and expand their influence every day, Monday to Monday®. Through Stacey Hanke, Inc., the author has provided keynotes, mentoring and training on communicating with influence to thousands of leaders across industries. She is the author of Yes You Can! and has appeared in the New York Times and SmartMoney. Hanke was recognized as one of the National Speakers Association's ''Top 6 Under 40.''
