Featured Book
Today we were honored to find that LeadershipNow has chosen Leadership Agility as the featured book for the December issue of its monthly e-newsletter, the Communique. (See my Dec. 6 post). The purpose of this electronic newsletter is described as follows:
Focusing on leadership issues, we hope to help you separate what truly matters from what is merely interesting. Here you will find ideas to think about and descriptions and links to not just the popular sources, but to some of the more useful products and resources we have found.
Our new book, Leadership Agility, clearly describes the inner capacities and core competencies of highly agile leaders. With over twenty real-life stories, it also identifies the five stages of levels that managers move through to master leadership agility.
Written in an engaging, down-to-earth style, this ground-breaking book is designed as a roadmap that tells you how to bring increased agility to the initiatives you take every day — whether you want to improve working relationships, develop your team, or change your organization.
This 29-page white paper tells the story of an executive team that transformed themselves and their business by learning a new approach to high-impact conversations. Provides a detailed inside view of the learning process that takes place in our Pivotal Conversations Learning Lab.
The Leadership Agility white paper is essentially an executive summary of the book. It clarifies why agility has become essential to leadership effectiveness, outlines the five levels of agility described in the book, identifies the four kinds of agility needed for successful leadership initiatives, and provides tips for becoming a more agile leader and helping others do the same.
The Leadership Agility Thought-Letter goes beyond what you'll find in the book. It provides you with applications of Leadership Agility principles and methods that you can use every day, plus updates about Leadership Agility resources.
