In 212° Leadership, I share 10 of the elements that can help to transform your leadership skills, along with some of my favorite quotes on the elements of leadership. I've always been fascinated with the qualities and characteristics of great leaders. History has identified many qualities and characteristics of great leaders, and, of course, no person embodies them all. But the great leaders I've known, or read about have one simple thing in common: They have developed their leadership styles around their personalities and their values, and in the end, their actions are consistent with what they truly believe.212° Leaders have made the leap from good to great. They are able to not only rally the troops to committed, purposeful action, but also to create an environment where quality and innovation are the norm, rather than the exception.212° Leadership is designed to make you think...to help you grow...and to provide that extra degree of passion to take your leadership skills from effective to extraordinary!
Super quick read. It took me about 20 minutes start to finish.
Anderson goes over many of the key aspects of successful leadership. Now he doesn't dive deep into the ten rules outlined in the book, but he touches on them enough to enlighten the reader of the things to be focused on as a leader.
Great, quick read for any entry- to mid-level leaders looking to up their game.
A short little read that has some wonderful quotes. It really is a long blog post formatted into a nice looking book. As I read this book I was able to connect to ideas from John Maxwell books and podcast along with Seth Godin.
More importantly, I have a long list of new books to go read from all the references in the book.
It is a good book, I am glad I read it as it has been on my shelf for some time. Looking forward to reading some of his other books I own as well.
