Leadership and Management discussion

Following feedback from our group, this thread is for people to request a book that deals with an aspect of leadership and mangement that they are interested in.

Hi, I am new to the group. I’m looking for books on being a confident leader. TIA.

Hello, Clemencia.
Radical Candor helped me feel more confident doing the more uncomfortable tasks with leading people, like giving developmental feedback and saying no to an interview candidate. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People helped me feel more confident in general and, as a result, as a leader. It was helpful in learning how to make the most out of conversations and have healthy, trusting relationships.
I am interested in reading Brené Brown's Daring Greatly and Dare to Lead because I am under the impression that they will help with confidence in leadership, but I haven't had the opportunity yet.

Hi Deanna,

Thank you for the recommendations. I will try these!

Could anyone recommend me a book on leading people leaders? Thank you.

Welcome Deanna! Many of the books about leading people contain principles that would also be applicable to leading people leaders. I'm not aware of a book targeting this specifcally, Some that might be useful are in the Bookshelf for this group: https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

Personally I quite like:
The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership: Follow Them and People Will Follow You by John C. Maxwell
Virtuous Leadership by Alexandre Havard
