The Leader's Digest: Timeless Principles for Team And Organization Success

by Jim Clemmer

Leadership is a popular topic today because it's so central to personal, team, and organization success. This has led to a confusing multitude of leadership grids, charts, formulas, jargon, fads, charismatic stories, and buzzwords. Drawing on decades of research, extensive experience coaching and developing thousands of managers, and previous bestselling books, Jim Clemmer distills today's leadership information overload to its core essentials. The result is a series of insights and bite-sized briefings on the timeless principles of leading people, The Leader's Digest. "If you're looking for a book that illuminates the topic of leadership in a useful, readable, and lively way, this is it." Warren Bennis Distinguished Professor of Business, USC, and Co-author of GEEKS AND How Era, Values and Defining Moments Shape Leaders "Easy to digest...presenting it in easily accessible snippets is a smart way to reach leaders who are usually busy, well, leading rather than reading." "Recommended Readings," Marketing Magazine "An incredibly readable and useful collection of wit and wisdom on today's most critical success factor - leadership."

A fantastic, eye opening look at what leaders *do* that make them leaders in the eyes of their followers. They say leadership is what you do; this book tells you what it is exactly that leaders do, why it works, and how it is important to establish yourself as a leader.

A simple read that in plain language, clearly communicates what followers expect out of their leaders.

What will make people follow you? This book answers that. An absolutely essential and required read for any individual in a supervisory, management, or leadership position."
