{"product_id":"2940170288267","title":"Change Leader: Learning to Do What Matters Most","description":"We live in a challenging, complex,  inter-connected and unpredictable world beset by a range of seemingly  insoluble problems. But, says Michael Fullan-an internationally acclaimed  authority on organizational change-we have an increasing understanding of how  to tackle complex change. This involves developing a new kind of leader: one  who recognizes what is needed to bring about deep and lasting changes in  living systems at all levels. These leaders need a deep understanding of what  motivates us as human beings and how we tap into and influence other people's  self-motivation. \u003cbr\u003e   In his previous best-selling books The Six Secrets of Change, Leading in a  Culture of Change, and Turnaround Leadership, Michael Fullan examined the  concepts and processes of change. In Change Leader he turns his focus to the  core practices of leadership that are so vital for leading in today's complex  world. He reveals seven core practices for today's leaders, all of which  appear to be deceptively simple but actually get to the essence of what  differentiates a powerful leader from one who is merely competent:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractice Drives Theory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBe Resolute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotivate the Masses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollaborate to Compete\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLearn Confidently\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnow Your Impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSustain Simplexity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFullan argues that powerful leaders have built bedrocks of credibility, have  learned how to identify the few things that matter most, and know how to  leverage their skills in ways that benefit their entire organization. The  author shows leaders how to avoid policies and strategies that focus on  shallow and short-term goals and develop leadership skills for long-term  success. \u003cbr\u003e   With a wealth of illustrative examples from business, education, nonprofit,  and government sectors Change Leader provides a much-needed leadership guide  for today's turbulent climate.","brand":"Instructional Systems [Aubrey J.
