Leadership Development in Balance by Bruce J. Avolio Pdf

This book, written by a leading scholar in leadership, takes readers through a very realistic look at what it takes to develop leadership competencies. Focusing on four major goals, this text: *provides the reader with a broader and deeper understanding of what constitutes authentic leadership development; *challenges a very basic notion that leaders are born versus made; *talks about the elements that comprise leadership development so readers are informed to ask the many providers of leadership development the right questions; and *develops full leadership potential. There are numerous case examples used throughout the book: high-tech executives, community leaders, correctional service supervisors, bank managers in Canada, and platoon commanders in Israel. Each example is used as a general basis for discussing how people develop their leadership potential, and as models of training and evaluation. Leadership Development in Balance: MADE/Born is intended for graduate or undergraduate students of leadership, project managers, supervisors, senior executives, school principles, health care officers, or legislators.

Leadership Greatness by Tri Junarso Pdf

If you have the qualities of leadership greatness - the GREAT factors - no one can stop you from becoming a leader. Great leadership does not start with what you already know, nor is about what you say about yourself and your achievements. Instead, leadership greatness is what other people say about you - after you have achieved some measure of success. In Leadership Greatness, author Tri Junarso guides you through the five qualities of being GREAT - Growth, Responsibility, Entrepreneurship, Authenticity, and Trust. Junarso frames these qualities in the context of both the competencies and skills that distinguish a leader. Imbuing your values and work ethic with these qualities will help you review, reframe, and build upon past experiences as you move initiatives forward. Junarso explains how to combine ethical, social, spiritual, and psychological competencies with a range of leadership and communication skills. By following Junarso's detailed and well-organized principles, you will develop the qualities of GREAT-ness. Most importantly, GREAT leadership will allow you spread influence throughout your organization, ultimately leading to successful outcomes. With its massive reference section, you'll use this book as a go-to guide each time you seek leadership inspiration.
