Unleashing leadership : aligning what people do best with what organizations need most / by John Hoover and Angelo Valenti.

2024-05-18T12:57:43Z

by Hoover, John, 1952-
Call Number 658.4092 22
Publication Date 2005
Summary Annotation How would your organization perform if everyone accepted leadership responsibility? What if leadership were an expectation of everyone, not an exception for the anointed few? You'll be happy to know that you have all the leadership potential needed in your organization right now to increase performance, productivity, and profits-and to sustain the increases. Unfortunately, the vast majority of your organization's leadership potential is probably locked up behind the bars of bureaucracy or staggering under the weight of organizational inertia. The old leadership school taught that an organization is made up of officers and enlistees, the more powerful and the less powerful, superiors and subordinates. A hierarchical organizational design draws leadership focus and energy away from problem solving and progressive thinking by encouraging those climbing the organizational food chain to focus instead on protecting their positions, perks, and territory. Leadership is a circle, not a ladder. Inverting this traditional pyramid of institutionalized defensiveness and territoriality requires a premeditated, purposeful, intentional, and methodical leadership system that aligns what people do best with what organizations need most. The ComposiTeamTM Leadership System is designed to do exactly that, and finishes what the movement for flattened organizations, shared responsibility, and distributed leadership responsibility started. Unleashing Leadership sets the stage to focus everyone's unique talents and abilities on making your organization thrive as never before. Not by luck, by chance, nor edict from on high, but from a well-designed and engineered leadership system that ties everyone in your organization to the truth of the past, the irreplaceability of the moment, and the promise of the future.
