This text provides a four-tiered approach to becoming a more effective leader. From establishing a context for examining your leadership role in the organization to enhancing your performance, the author provides information on developing leaders who are able to keep ahead of the pace of business. Through anecdotes, personal profiles and case studies Peter Topping looks at leadership models and frameworks; tools for assessing leadership strengths; coaching, teaching and mentoring skills and techniques for handling change and growth. The guide forces today's managers to understand the dynamics of the new workplace, what makes it function, where it is moving the company, and how to apply the best thinking.
