The Leadership Drought

Over twenty years ago, the late Peter Drucker exclaimed, "We have a dearth of leadership!" Today's leadership experts still say the same thing, but they note that there is no shortage of raw talent. The problem, it seems, is developing that talent. In The Leadership Drought, two proven business executives define what great leadership is and how companies, organizations, and individuals can develop it in themselves and others. Learn how to · muster the courage to decisively act during challenging situations, · build trust by demonstrating genuine care for others, · look past the symptoms of problems to find real solutions, and · develop communication and collaboration skills in others. The authors also explore the benefits of diversity and reveal ways to facilitate reflective and creative thinking skills. Moreover, they explain the importance of being accountable and accepting responsibility without blame. Whether you are already a leader or want to become one, this guide will help you develop the essential skills you need to succeed.
