{"product_id":"9781935690627","title":"The Faith of Leadership: Insights from Hawaii's Leaders","description":"As a well-respected executive at some of Hawai'i's top companies, Robbie Alm has had plenty of opportunity to observe and document the best practices of great leaders. From the story of the “Live Aloha” program—which he helped launch—to instructive anecdotes of humility and integrity in business, he now shares what he has learned in \u003ci\u003eThe Faith of Leadership: Insights from Hawai'i's Leaders\u003c\/i\u003e. Currently president of the Collaborative Leaders Network, a problem-solving initiative of The Omidyar Group, Alm offers a thoughtful—and useful—study of just what makes an effective leader. \u003cp\u003eEngaging and straightforward, \u003ci\u003eThe Faith of Leadership\u003c\/i\u003e is a distillation of Alm's eight keys to great leadership: listening, humility, working with resistance to change, remembering whose change we are talking about, walking the talk and integrity, making certain we always hear independent voices, understanding how others see the world and, finally, the faith that underlies leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReal-life lessons and key examples from local companies and individuals provide a simple foundation for Alm's discussion of the qualities of excellent leadership. \u003ci\u003eThe Faith of Leadership\u003c\/i\u003e offers a series of guideposts for mapping a life path to becoming a good leader. Excellence in leadership, Alm believes, is less about wealth and power and more about positivity and serving as a good model. The faith of leadership lies in setting a course that will accomplish what is right—and accepting the challenge of working on a problem that may not be solved in the near future.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Watermark Publishing, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47051364204784,"sku":"9781935690627","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781935690627_p0.jpg?v=1763659452","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781935690627","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
