A comprehensive blueprint for the enlightened leader
"The
Leadership Contract" is the modern leader's handbook for organizational
renewal. Leaders are no longer "rulers," nor are they accidental--in
today's business climate, leadership is both a trait and a specific set
of skills. It's about trust, commitment, communication, and drive. This
book shows you how to become the leader your organization needs. You'll
go beyond adopting the habits and practices of an effective leader and
actually put it in writing to establish a leadership contract that
ensures the success of your company. This revised and updated edition
includes new coverage of accountability, personal and organizational
levels of the leadership contract, new "Gut Check" summary questions
after each chapter, and additional opening and closing remarks to
provide key insight into what the leadership role entails.
Recent
studies show that only 7 percent of employees have trust and confidence
in their senior leaders. How can organizations succeed without the
support of their employees? This book aims to build better leaders and
establish a true leadership culture that inspires the entire
organization.

employees deserve.
