Book excerpt: If you are a leader or aspire to leadership over others you must read "Leaders, Power & Consequences." It clearly exposes the influences a leader has with people who are close and important to the leader. The leader is the person who holds the true power, that is, “the buck stops with them.” It is not underlings who act on behalf of another who dictates their actions. They are not the true power, and no one is long deceived. Where do problems in relationships, trivial or significant, not exist? The answer to resolving the problem is likely found where the power is located. Who are the true leaders, what are their expectations and how well do they communicate with those they lead? And, how well and candidly do those significant to the leader communicate directly back to the leader? This is where trust, safety and respect play a huge role in how the relationship plays out and either grows, mutually, or is destructive, mutually. Most leaders tend to communicate badly, have unspoken or inflexible expectations towards those they lead and blame others for what is the leader’s failings. "Leaders, Power & Consequences" confronts this problem of leadership directly and clearly by using Sy Ogulnick’s personally experienced stories. He clearly describes the path leaders must take if they are to personally grow, to understand themselves better, and in the process to contribute to the growth of those they lead. When authentic communication takes place between those in power and those immediately at the effect of this power, trust, safety and respect are felt by each. This must be found in the environment or Genuine Dialogue between them is impossible and will not, even at the point of a gun, take place. And it is the leaders who are primarily responsible for the creation of the environment. Words do not make it so, but action (behavior of the leaders) does. The path laid out in "Leaders, Power & Consequences" leads to facilitating problem-solving, creativity, innovation and a sense of mutual ownership amongst people to the degree that most leaders can only dream of.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, there are a growing number of business schools, law schools, and continuing education programs in executive development and management training that offer leadership classes. Despite the growing curricular recognition of this area, there is a shortage of strong college-level texts. Leadership, second edition—a completely up-to-date anthology of key writings by well-known contributors—meets this need for a textbook that encompasses the major theories in the field of leadership. Leadership is divided into six sections. Part I provides an overview of the subject with readings that examine what leaders actually do, as well as the many myths surrounding the notion of leadership. Part II focuses on the fundamentals of leadership by taking a close look at the specific tactics people use to get their own way. These readings analyze the political games people play and the two-way nature of leader-subordinate influence. Part III considers problems that can arise from leadership gone wrong—when power and influence are abused. The major formal models of leadership that have been offered over the years are reviewed in Part IV. The next section looks at contemporary views of leadership, emphasizing reliance on maturity of subordinates for success, including leadership in the context of self-directed work teams, entrepreneurial leadership, the notion of the leader as servant, and examples of leaders who are recognized for having empowered others or for providing moral leadership. The final section examines the roles of societal and organizational cultures as they pertain to leadership. Robert P. Vecchio has updated the second edition with six new articles. Aimed at upper-level undergraduate and graduate-level courses, Leadership continues to provide classic essays by the major figures in the field of leadership along with topical essays on current and emerging issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I am going to take you on a journey that may cause you to reflect on some of your perceptions and earlier understandings of the subject of leadership and, hopefully, may unsettle you enough to inspire deep, intensive thought.” Peter J. Daniels holds nothing back in his latest book on leadership, Leadership Power: Beyond the Smoke and Mirrors. Those in leadership, and those who aspire to leadership positions, will be challenged and inspired by the task set before them. Mr. Daniels shares practical advice and sobering realities from his many decades in leadership positions. He succinctly yet powerfully captures the essence of leadership and the world’s desperate need for leaders of character and determination. “Leadership Power should be required reading for anyone who has a position of leadership in business or in the Church... Get it, read it, and apply it to your life.” —Rick Renner Author, Pastor, Church Founder, and T.V. Broadcaster “Daniels writes with passion, authority, and from a lifetime of experience—anyone who sees themselves as leader, or future leader, needs to read it.” —Dr. Colin Stringer Author of The 800 Horsemen “This book will super charge its reader to take up the leadership role and walk in their divine destiny.” —Chris Greenwood, also known as Manafest “Thank you, Peter J. Daniels... More than just theories, your wise words of experience challenge every one of us to be pragmatic, skilled, and steadfast.” —John Mason President of Insight International/Insight Publishing Group “...a must read for all who are willing to be honest with themselves and with God, those who really benefit mankind through his or her leadership.” —Pastor Kenneth Copeland Kenneth Copeland Ministries

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power is an inescapable feature of human existence. It plays a role in all social contexts and is particularly important in the functioning of organizations and work groups. Organizational researchers have certainly recognised the importance of power but have traditionally focused on its negative aspects. Yet power can also have very positive effects. Power and Interdependence in Organizations capitalizes on significant developments in social science over the past twenty years to show how managers and employees can manage power in order to make it a constructive force in organizations. Written by a team of international academics, the book explores both the positive and negative aspects of power, identifying opportunities and threats. It shows that harnessing the positive aspects of power, as well as controlling its more destructive effects, has the potential to revolutionise the way that organizations function, making them both more humane and productive.

Although a leader can make decisions by command, Zand notes that in today's knowledge-driven organization with educated, informed employees, the effective leader rarely issues directives, but instead acts more as a consultant and a client.

Book excerpt: In today's complex work world, things no longer get done simply because someone issues an order and someone else follows it.Most of us work in socially intricate organizations where we need the help not only of subordinates but of colleagues, superiors, and outsiders to accomplish our goals. This often leaves us in a "power gap" because we must depend on people over whom we have little or no explicit control.This is a book about how to bridge that gap: how to exercise the power and influence you need to get things done through others when your responsibilities exceed your formal authority.Full of original ideas and expert insights about how organizations—and the people in them—function,Power and Influencegoes further, demonstrating that lower-level personnel also need strong leadership skills and interpersonal know-how to perform well.Kotter shows how you can develop sufficient resources of "unofficial" power and influence to achieve goals, steer clear of conflicts, foster creative team behavior, and gain the cooperation and support you need from subordinates, coworkers, superiors—even people outside your department or organization.He also shows how you can avoid the twin traps of naivete and cynicism when dealing with power relationships, and how to use your power without abusing it.Power and Influenceis essential for top managers who need to overcome the infighting, foot-dragging, and politicking that can destroy both morale and profits; for middle managers who don't want their careers sidetracked by unproductive power struggles; for professionals hindered by bureaucratic obstacles and deadline delays; and for staff workers who have to "manage the boss."This is not a book for those who want to "grab" power for their own ends. But if you'd like to create smooth, responsive working relationships and increase your personal effectiveness on the job, Kotter can show you how—and make the dynamics of power work for you instead of against you.

Indem es auf die grundlegenden Dimensionen guter Führung verweist und ihren Wertbeitrag nicht nur für den Einzelnen und die Organisation, sondern auch für das große Ganze in den Blick nimmt, hilft es dabei, die enorme Fülle neuer Herausforderungen wie aber auch die Chancen und Potenziale guter Führung besser zu verstehen und unternehmerisch verantwortungsvoll zu nutzen.

By emphasizing the fundamental dimensions of good leadership in terms of their contribution to the greater good, the model provides a better understanding of the myriad of new challenges, opportunities and potential of good leadership. Furthermore it aims to elucidate how to utilize them in an entrepreneurially responsible manner. The holistic model is geared towards development and offers sustainable orientation for executives in various fields based on four key perspectives.

Book excerpt: I chose to write leadership books trying to gather the best information. Initially I wanted to build a leadership handbook, but after a long study I realised that the purpose of the information in this book should not be that. I want to bring out important principles that I have discovered that can be applied by each of us. So I have chosen to propose a set of 111 laws about leaders and leadership. This book represents my expectations of a truly great leader. It represents the sum of qualities and how a leader should think and act so that their team or organization thrives. I first wanted to lay them out in a clear order but I understand that you can return to these laws whenever you want, on the proposed aspects. I have chosen this way of presentation because I want each of you to start experiencing the 111 laws of leadership power. To start writing down all those thoughts that you are proud of and that can make you better in your relationship with others. This is just a first step but influence is gained in small, steady steps. Leadership is a challenge and so a clear question needs to be asked: What are the challenges we face every day? I am confident that this book, along with all the other books in the Culture of Value will help you fill an information gap and you will be able to use these laws and principles to build your own path to success. Time will tell whether the investment in personal development and leadership was a waste or an opportunity for a better life.
