Elevate Your Leadership
Leadership is a perishable skill. Use it or lose it. Musicians rehearse, athletes train, scientists conduct experiments. Leading others is no different. From economic and cultural pressures to shifts in predominant technology and communications platforms, this book will elevate your confidence and competence by developing your own leadership brand. Good leaders draw from a variety of skills and qualities depending on the situation, like an artist draws from a palette of colors.
In Part I, The Art of Leadership, you will craft your own unique leadership brand from a palette of leadership styles, power types, and core traits. We examine various definitions of leadership and show you how to develop your own personal definition. The remaining chapters on part 1 infuse storytelling, 11 critical leadership traits, and classic dichotomies such as leadership vs management, culture vs climate, and others. We close Part 1 in Chapter 6 with a probing discussion of one of the most pressing leadership challenges of today: diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Part II, The Science of Leadership, guides you through adopting the habits which will elevate your fitness for leadership throughout your life. The science of leadership draws on six proven factors influencing physical wellness and mental vitality. Putting these factors into play will elevate your physical health and cognitive vitality while also deepening your reserves to handle inevitable chaos. You will discover greater energy and mental clarity and help your team to develop the same capacity for seeing opportunity amidst chaos and uncertainty.
