Авторы книги, среди которых профессора ведущих мировых школ бизнеса и руководители-практики, анализируют важнейшие теории лидерства и на конкретных примерах показывают, что может помочь или помешать стать признанным лидером. Подробно рассматривается вопрос эмоционального интеллекта и даются советы, каким образом его можно развить. Особое внимание уделено теме преемственности руководства, а также эгоцентричным личностям, которые, с одной стороны, очень нужны компании, а с другой - могут привести ее к банкротству.
Author of Emotional Intelligence and psychologist Daniel Goleman has transformed the way the world educates children, relates to family and friends, and conducts business. The Wall Street Journal ranked him one of the 10 most influential business thinkers.
Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence was on The New York Times best sellers list for a year-and-a-half. Named one of the 25 "Most Influential Business Management Books" by TIME, it has been translated into 40 languages. The Harvard Business Review called emotional intelligence (EI) “a revolutionary, paradigm-shattering idea.”
Goleman’s new book, Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence, argues that attention — a fundamental mental ability for success — has come under siege. Leadership that gets results demands a triple focus: on our inner world so we can manage ourselves; on others, for our relationships; and on the outer forces that shape our organizations and society itself.
His more recent books include The Brain and Emotional Intelligence, and Leadership: The Power of Emotional Intelligence - Selected Writings.
There was good insights, perfect to notice what are the biggest good decision to make. LEADERSHIP is more that being polite, have the best team, take the best ways and invest time in all you team to make the perfect plan.
I would recommend only two chapters in this book - interesting . Mt.Everest/Leadership Lessons and What Titans can teach us. It is enough to read only the highlighted sentences in rest of the chapters you would not miss much by doing so!!
