Leadership Your Way: Play the Hand You're Dealt -- And Win

by Kim H. Krisco, Elizabeth Katz (Editor)

Leadership Your Way To be an effective leader you need to ensure that ten basic organizational processes are present and robust – but you do not have to lead or manage these processes yourself. Your innate personal or behavioral style enables you to be masterful in leading some organizational processes and not very effective leading others. As a consequence, we tend to discount or ignore those leadership acts that don’t come natural. The result is that our enterprise is not getting all the leadership it needs. Leadership Your Way lets you zero in on your own, unique personal style and learn what organizational processes likely need your attention. The book goes on to give you customized coaching tips around these "missing or weak processes." In short, Leadership Your Way helps you to leverage your natural strengths and manage your weaker areas – play the hand you’ve been dealt . . . and win.

About the author

The author of three books on leadership, is now delighted to follow in the footsteps of the master storyteller Sir Arthur Conan Doyle by adding five totally new Sherlock Holmes adventures to the canon in his new book: Sherlock Holmes-The Golden Years, Irregular Lives:The Untold Story of Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars, and The Celtic Phoenix and The Magnificent Madness of Tessa Wiggins -- all from MX Publishing in London.

Meticulously researched, all of Krisco’s stories read like mini historical novels. Indeed Kim trekked to Aviemore Scotland, and climbed Ben Macdui Mountain, so he could better capture the authentic feel of the setting for The Bonnie Bag of Bones – the first of Holmes’s post-retirement adventure: The Magnificent Madness of Tessa Wiggins, takes place in 1920 - Blaenau Ffestiniog, Wales. Tessa Wiggins’s “madness” is provoked by the adopted spirit of a two-thousand-year-old Druid priestess mentoring her to be the servant of The Earth Mother. When Tessa defies treatment, her lover asks a childhood friend, Sherlock Holmes, to intervene. But despite everyone’s best intentions, Tessa finds herself in Hellingford Asylum, where she is driven toward her final breaking point on All-Halloween.

Kim lives in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado with Sararose in cabins they built themselves.
