The more you manage your employees, the more dependent they become upon you. Powerful Leadership addresses this management paradox, distilling seven powerful leadership principles into a natural, powerful, and comprehensive approach to management that can unleash the potential of virtually any employee -- and simplify your work life at the same time.KEY TOPICS:Powerful Leadership draws upon principles the authors have discovered in over 40 combined years of teaching and research -- and offers specific techniques and examples showing how these principles can be put into action successfully. You'll discover how to become a "freedom fighter" at work; how to encourage creativity and fun at work; how to move from "boss" to "coach"; how to master the "4 Es" of Involvement; how to take the high road and the peaceful path, and much more. By following these principles, readers can transform their everyday management styles from "unglamorous and restrictive" to "striking and inspiring."MARKET:For every manager who wants to become more effective -- and have more fun!
