High Impact Leadership: 10 Action Strategies For Your Ascent

Like you author Brian Braudis believes the traditional view of leadership is outdated, ineffective and unattractive. The new view and the new role of leadership is open to reinvention with the involvement of YOU.

Brian Braudis examines the new shape of leadership opportunity (less emphasis on profit and production and a greater emphasis on people, society, well being and purpose) in today's climate of heightened uncertainty and unfamiliarity. The demands of innovation, competition and complexity point to the need for leaders with a high level of composure, flexibility and adaptability. Open-mindedness, diverse and agile thinking along with collaboration have supplanted autocratic, dictator and demander leadership.

New leadership requires new strength, new competencies and a new level of engagement from the top. Team members today demand support; encouragement, coaching and mentoring and they want to be listened to. Team members want to be heard not lectured to, screamed at or looked down upon.

High Impact Leadership: 10 Action Strategies for Your Ascent offers a new look, a new beginning and an opening for a 21st century leader-less emphasis on profit and production and a greater emphasis on people, society, well being and purpose.

Braudis emphasizes that a leaders potential for impact lies in the shift from dictator to cultivator, less about dominating and dictating and more about involvement and influencing. Today's leader is the "lead collaborator."

The potential for creating lasting impact is open to new leaders and seasoned leaders alike when each day is used as an investment to:
•Raise the standard.
•Convert dissonance to connectedness.
•View problems as areas for innovation.
•Turn risk into reward.

This book offers a new look to finally believe in leadership as the one thing that can change everything. There is a grand opportunity for YOU to increase your influence and help people, team members and colleagues become stronger, more powerful, more resourceful, more humane and more like the kind of leaders we all want to see.
