Leadership Navigation For Ne Managers [Paperback]

Faced with a step change? Bridge the gap of the step change from being exceptional in your trade to being a manager. Promotions to management are usually based on identified leadership talent and trade competence. However, trade and talent do not result in exceptional leadership by default. Exceptional leadership is inclusive of managing and leading. You can not only lead and not manage or manage and not lead. The question is, what is it that we ought to manage? We fall into the trap of managing what we know and lose sight of what we do not know or are not comfortable off. Leadership books and training provide tools and frameworks that boost our knowledge. Mentors and coaches provide advice that assists us to cope. Leadership Navigation is a tool that navigates you to real-time execution; it is not based on application of a specific model nor a specific topic but a holistic view of how to utilize all your resources and tools. It is a great self-check tool for emerging managers and even experienced managers who feel lost within the thick of things. Avoid managing by killing fires. Avoid surviving through giving excuses for poor performance. Opt to lead and manage.
