Book excerpt: Rather than asking aspiring quiet leaders to “fake it” or pretend to be something they aren’t, Quiet Leader, Loud Results provides real-world tested suggestions, advice, and strategies that will help readers become dynamic leaders on their own terms and drive outcomes in their organizations. This book shares real stories from quiet leaders who have navigated the difficulties of having a quieter personality, succeeding both for themselves and their organizations. In this book, you’ll learn more about • The unique strengths introverts and other quiet personalities can bring to leadership • How quiet leaders can bring their own style to the core skills of leadership: setting strategy, executing your strategy, connecting with your collaborators, and building a following for your mission • Practical advice from quiet leaders who have been there and who have managed to lead successfully while still being true to themselves • Specific steps that aspiring leaders can take to put these lessons into practice Author Ankit Mahadevia—a quiet leader and founder and CEO of nine biotechnology companies—is living proof that the strategies he offers to his fellow quiet personalities work. He shares the triumphs and pitfalls of his own journey throughout the book alongside other quiet leaders. In an increasingly complex and chaotic world where leaders are in short supply, people of all personality types are needed to lead. Through stories, practical suggestions, and real-world strategies, the book will help quiet leaders make their results speak louder than they do—while employing a style that’s true to who they are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERMost of us think of leaders as courageous risk takers, orchestrators of major events. In a word: heroes. Although such figures are inspiring, their larger-than-life accomplishments are not what makes the world work. Instead, it is the sum of millions of small yet consequential decisions that individuals working far from the limelight make every day. Badaracco calls these individuals "quiet leaders"- people who choose responsible, behind-the-scenes action over public heroism to resolve tough leadership challenges. Quiet leaders don't fit the stereotype of the bold and gutsy leader, and they don't want to. What they want is to do the "right thing"- for their organizations, their coworkers, and themselves- inconspicuously and without casualties. Drawing from extensive research, Harvard Business School professor and author Joseph Badaracco presents eight practical yet counter-intuitive guidelines for situations in which right and wrong seem like moving targets. Compelling stories illustrate how these "nonheroes" succeed by managing their political capital, buying themselves time, bending the rules, and more. From the executive suite to the office cubicle--Leading Quietly shows how patient, everyday efforts can add up to a better company and a better world.

Book excerpt: Strategy. Leadership Behavior. Results. The three need to mesh for good things to happen in any business, including your own. The data, decisions, and processes that result in a game plan to improve business results all reside in parallel universes—one analytical and one interpersonal.

Nimble Leader focuses on the critical few concepts that are essential to business success. If you are able to truly understand and apply the critical few, you are in a much better position to manage the urgent many . . . when the bullets start to fly!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time, a top leadership scholar and a top leadership practitioner explore the true duties, demands, and privileges of leadership. Intellectual sparks flew when Warren Bennis, the “father” of modern leadership studies and Steven B. Sample, one of the most accomplished university presidents in recent history, came together for candid explorations of the forces that shape successful leaders and unsuccessful ones. The Art and Adventure of Leadership, their final collab­oration, reveals the profound insights that the authors gained together over the 16 years in which they co-taught one of the most popular leadership courses in America. Here, each brings his own distinct vantage point as they address the mechanics and mysteries of leadership. The result is a unique examination of the journey of great leaders from momentary setbacks to ultimate success. It offers profound lessons on what determines the difference between failure and redemption for leaders. And it illu­minates important and overlooked dimensions of great leaders ranging from Winston Churchill to Steve Jobs. Together, they explore why: A mature leader must grasp when it’s healthy to risk failure, and when failure can’t be tolerated at any cost Leadership isn’t for everyone and requires a particular set of skills and competencies that are often glossed over in most management literature To succeed in an uncertain and fast-changing world, a shrewd leader must understand which aspects of human society change—and which aspects never change A mature, wise leader must seek a balance between high-minded ideals and the gritty realities and compromises that leaders face in their daily lives Above all, meaningful leadership remains a matter of character With incredible insight, this book examines why George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and other giants were able to recover from failures, learn resilience, and prepare themselves for their moments of destiny. In so doing, it demonstrates and helps cultivate the leadership skills that you need to create your own most meaningful legacy. The Art and Adventure of Leadership is a unique look at lead­ership, and a critical resource for the leaders of tomorrow.
