What if what you’ve been taught about leadership is wrong?
With today’s massive amount of information in books, blogs, social media, and videos, many people are calling leadership many things—and much of what they say about leadership is off.
This confusion about leadership can send you down a path of mediocre leadership (or worse), and you may not even realize it—because it’s what you’ve been taught.
Essential Leadership is about clarifying what leadership is and what it takes to be a great leader, whether you are an executive, a CEO, a manager, a boss, a principal, a politician, a superintendent, or even if you don’t have a position of leadership but just want to learn how to lead.
Essential Leadership dives into:
- The mentality you should have as a leader (and the common mentalities that you should avoid)
- The misconceptions many have about leadership (and the truths you need to know)
- The reality about leadership styles that many miss
- Why your preferences and strengths don’t matter as much as you think they might
- How to communicate effectively to build greater trust and get better results
- How to show appreciation and give feedback effectively
- The importance of culture and the building blocks of creating a great one
- What it really takes to motivate your employees
- And much more.
