In today’s corporate environment, this book can help managers and non managers face each other across an ever-narrowing gulf. It is more than a bare-bones leadership course. The lessons provided are based on the premise that individuals can bring their personal strength to bear to make an ever-changing workplace intelligible. The leadership philosophy and practical tools presented each employee to analyze situations and avoid the leading causes of stress, namely confusion and powerlessness. Anyone who has an eye on the executive suite, including front-line supervisors, middle managers, and less-than-senior executives, will find this book indispensable, as will non-management employees who are called upon to be decision makers without positions of authority. This book illuminates a fundamental truth about leadership, and it invites everyone from CEOs to clerks to work in cooperation to instill leadership at every level. Both men and women will find this book inspirational and practical. Its message is that the best way to be a better leader is to encourage leadership in others – and how to go about it.
