Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU'VE BEEN INVITED TO LEAD ... Deep down, everyone has the desire to lead. It may be driven by power, influence, or even control, but at the end of the day, we all desire to be part of the decision making process. Why? Because that's what will define our legacy. The decisions we make, the impact we create, the footprints we leave behind, will all determine our significance here on earth. Every day we are provided opportunities, or invitations, to lead. Unfortunately, our culture has taught us to minimize risk and protect our assets. Leadership, at its' core, challenges these ideas of safety and security. Leading others is to put them first and ourselves second. Growth, success, and most importantly significance, come when we step out of that safe area in our life, out of our comfort zone. You can't become someone you've never been before without doing something you've never done before. This picture of me with the little boy provided the inspiration for me to answer my invitation to lead and to write this book. In June of 2013, I stretched and stepped outside of my comfort zone and finally understood what my purpose was. A purpose to build what matters and what matters is people. The experience I had that afternoon in Guatemala City helped me to understand the difference between success and significance. Your significance will come from empowering and equipping others to realize theirs. Leadership by Invitation is about finding that significance that we are all capable of, yet rarely achieve. Someone out there is waiting for you to lead them, to believe in them. The time to answer your invitation is now. Leadership by Invitation - How to RSVP and Embrace Your Role as a LEADER will provide the "how" that you need to answer your invitation and become the influential leader you were created to be. ... WILL YOU SHOW UP?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the twenty-fifth anniversary of the publication of her classic Leadership and the New Science, bestselling author Margaret Wheatley once again turns to the new science of living systems to help leaders persevere in a time of great turmoil. I know it is possible for leaders to use their power and influence, their insight and compassion, to lead people back to an understanding of who we are as human beings, to create the conditions for our basic human qualities of generosity, contribution, community and love to be evoked no matter what. I know it is possible to experience grace and joy in the midst of tragedy and loss. I know it is possible to create islands of sanity in the midst of wildly disruptive seas. I know it is possible because I have worked with leaders over many years in places that knew chaos and breakdown long before this moment. And I have studied enough history to know that such leaders always arise when they are most needed. Now it's our turn.

Book excerpt: An uplifting leadership book about a coach who helped transform the nation’s worst high school hockey team into one of the best. Bacon’s strategy is straightforward: set high expectations, make them accountable to each other, and inspire them all to lead their team. When John U. Bacon played for the Ann Arbor Huron High School River Rats, he never scored a goal. Yet somehow, years later he found himself leading his alma mater’s downtrodden program. How bad? The team hadn’t won a game in over a year, making them the nation’s worst squad—a fact they celebrated. With almost everyone expecting more failure, Bacon made it special to play for Huron by making it hard, which inspired the players to excel. Then he defied conventional wisdom again by putting the players in charge of team discipline, goal-setting, and even decision-making – and it worked. In just three seasons the River Rats bypassed 95-percent of the nation’s teams. A true story filled with unforgettable characters, stories, and lessons that apply to organizations everywhere, Let Them Lead includes the leader’s mistakes and the reactions of the players, who have since achieved great success as leaders themselves. Let Them Lead is a fast-paced, feel-good book that leaders of all kinds can embrace to motivate their teams to work harder, work together, and take responsibility for their own success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do great companies and other organizations fail, sometimes abruptly? Why do admired leaders fall from their organizational pedestals? Why do young and promising managers derail? Why do organizations create and reinforce rules that manifestly damage both them and those that they employ, serve and sustain? Leadership is a much-discussed but ill-defined idea in business and management circles. Analysing and understanding the skills and behaviours exhibited in leadership practice reveal that leaders exhibit paradoxical activities that challenge our understanding of organizations. In this text, the authors identify leadership behaviours that compete towards business equilibrium: selfish versus selfless, distance versus proximity, consistency versus individuality, enforcing professional standards versus flexibility and control versus autonomy. These paradoxical dilemmas require a reflexive and analytical approach to a subject that is tricky to define. The book explores the paradoxes of power and leadership not as a panacea for solving organizational problems but as a lens through which leadership and power are seen as an exercise in dynamic balance. Read this book as an invitation to the paradoxes of power and leadership that frame organizational life today. Be prepared to find surprises – and some counterintuitive arguments. Providing a thought-provoking guide to the traits and skills that will help readers to understand and navigate paradoxical leadership behaviour, this reflexive book will be a useful reading for students and scholars of business, management and psychology globally.
