“An encyclopedia of leadership research and philosophy…Each chapter is chock full of big learnings. Savor, absorb and apply.”—David Cottrell, author of Monday Morning Leadership Whether in the boardroom, on the battlefield, or in sports competition, the difference between success and failure often begins and ends with the quality of those who lead. Effective leaders can produce outstanding team performance, inspire others to overcome adversity and challenge, and help unlock potential and fulfillment for their people. Poor leaders can cripple progress, decrease productivity and results, and drive people toward the door. Leadership is often viewed as a ‘black box’—an unexplainable phenomenon that sits between the input of effort and the output of desired results. What does ‘good’ leadership look like, and how do we develop the ability to successfully lead? Intended for both current and aspiring leaders, The Leadership Core explores several primary competencies, as well as the concept of character, that help leaders become more effective and inspiring. Interspersed with pauses for reflection on one’s own leadership today, The Leadership Core can be a valuable tool for both leaders at all levels.
