Riassunto:

What?s Your Leadership Style? The Leader?s Window provides managers with an action plan for developing high-performing teams that?s been "battle tested" and refined in over ten years of use by John Beck and Neil Yeager and their colleagues at the Charter Oak Consulting Group. The ideas in The Leader?s Window have been used by thousands of managers in over twenty industries ranging from health care to telecommunications. "The Leader?s Window takes situational leadership to the next level. It has a strong foundation in research, and the examples give rich leadership profiles and provide real depth based on hands-on experience." ?Matthew Minahan Manager of Organizational Development World Bank "As a former McKinsey & Company partner, I know that leadership is one of the great black holes of management. What separates The Leader?s Window from the pack is its riveting practicality. Here is an approach that will unleash the potential of every individual and team from the boardroom to the plant floor." ?Alan Gayer Chief Executive Officer Egleston Children?s Hospital "The concepts covered in The Leader?s Window have been invaluable in our work with our clients as they move toward mature high-performance teams. This book will help traditional supervisors become more effective coaches and will help in the transition from treating leadership as a position to treating leadership as a function shared by team members." ?Jack Orsburn President, Orsburn Team Works "The power of The Leader?s Window comes from its combination of analytical framework and practitioner?s guide, invaluable to anyone interested in developing high-performance teamwork. We have used it with a broad spectrum of teams and it actually works!" ?M. O. Jones Manager, Organizational Development British Petroleu
