Your Leadership Legacy by Marta Brooks,Julie Stark,Sarah Caverhill Pdf

Whatever your position, if you influence change in the lives of those around you, you are engaged in an act of leadership. And if you are a leader in any sense, you are creating a legacy as you live your daily life. That legacy is the sum total of the difference you make in the lives of others. Will you consciously craft your legacy or simply leave it up to chance? Through an insightful parable, Your Leadership Legacy shows how to create a positive, empowering legacy that will endure and inspire. You'll learn that, as a leader, the legacy you live is the legacy you leave. Three Leadership Imperatives—dare to be a person, not a position; dare to connect; and dare to drive the dream—will guide you in creating a positive and lasting legacy.

From leadership expert Dr. Jim Loehr, strengthen your moral and ethical character for outstanding leadership results with this must-have set. Leading with Character: 10 Minutes a Day to a Brilliant Legacy At the end of your life, how are you likely to be remembered? Chances are that people won’t be praising your money, power, and status. Instead, the people you’ve impacted will remember you for your compassion and personal strength—in short, your character. Unfortunately, many leaders are unaware of their character shortcomings and blind spots that hold so many of us back from building the lasting legacy we are capable of. With the right motivation, you can begin to strengthen your character and become a moral and ethical leader capable of creating lasting change. In Leading with Character: 10 Minutes a Day to a Brilliant Legacy, Dr. Jim Loehr, cofounder of the Johnson & Johnson Human Performance Institute, reveals 50 character competencies that you can practice daily to transform your life and work. This book will also guide you through the process of developing a Personal Credo that will serve as your decision-making mission statement. Most leaders never take the time to identify their own core values, instead defaulting to a reflexive form of decision making. Gain an awareness of the conscious and unconscious processes that guide what you do and why you do it, and take charge of your leadership legacy. Even good leaders are vulnerable to corruption. Read Leading with Character to learn how human evolution and contemporary culture can lead us astray without our even knowing it. As we work hard to get to the top, who are we becoming along the way?

The Personal Credo Journal: A Companion to Leading with Character We all want to become high impact leaders with a robust ethical and moral character, but getting there is a challenge.

Your Leadership Legacy by Robert M. Galford,Regina Fazio Maruca Pdf

You should worry about your legacy later in your career, at the edge of retirement—right? Not according to Robert Galford and Regina Maruca. In Your Leadership Legacy, these authors argue that thinking about your legacy now makes you a better leader today. Based on stories of top leaders who have shaped successful careers, the book explores the art of "legacy thinking," helping you to formulate a legacy that will exert a positive effect on your work immediately. The authors provide a disciplined approach to framing your legacy, as well as shaping it over time. They start with the idea that your legacy is defined by how others approach work and life as a result of having worked with you. They then demonstrate how to assess your current impact on those around you, strengthen that impact, and pass along the best of yourself in the process. While many leaders "find themselves" and hone their work accordingly only after a major life crisis, Your Leadership Legacy enables all leaders to craft their work and build their legacy unburdened by such crises, and to experience personal satisfaction and achievement throughout their working lives.

The Legacy Leader by Anthony Lopez Pdf

These fundamentals are character, integrity, and ethics. When these are compromised, the leader will never achieve all that they could have. Learning the mechanics of leadership is important. Leaders need to know how to develop strategies based on a well-developed vision. They must understand communication, empowerment, delegation, and other fundamental principles of good leadership. However, what they must always keep in the forefront of their thinking is why they lead. What is their purpose in leading? Many of today's contemporary leadership books concern themselves with the mechanics of leadership. Few have given consideration to the true purpose of leadership. That is what this book is about. It's about helping leaders create a legacy they can be proud of. 'Tony gets to the heart and essence of leadership, boils it down to its fundamental elements, and creates an outline for daily application that simply makes sense. His writing provides us with evidence that leadership need not be complicated. Rather, he reminds us that grounded on the fundamental non-negotiable requirements of character, integrity, and credibility, leadership is about creating something of lasting value and worth. With that as the foundation, Tony presents compelling arguments for what he calls 'the mechanics of leadership,' and outlines specific ways that leaders must behave in order to reach their full potential. The principles outlined in this book serve as an enduring guide and a strong reminder of what we must all strive for as leaders.' —From the Foreword by Charles P. Garcia, Author of Leadership Lessons of the White House Fellows Many of today's contemporary books on the subject of leadership concern themselves with the mechanics of leadership. Encyclopedic volumes have been written about how to lead, and about what to do, and when to do it. However, few leadership books have given serious consideration to the true purpose of leadership. That is what this book is all about: the purpose of leadership. It's about creating something of lasting value and worth. Learning the mechanics of leadership is important. Leaders must learn how to be effective. They need to know how to develop strategies based on a well-developed vision. They must understand communication, empowerment, delegation, and other fundamental principles of good leadership. These are all important skills for a leader to have if they are to be successful. However, what they must always keep in the forefront of their thinking is why they lead. What is their purpose in leading? In this book, Anthony López strives to provide readers the tools and strategies necessary to succeed in all that they do and to truly become a Legacy Leader.

Leading with Character by Jim Loehr Pdf

PRAISE FOR LEADING WITH CHARACTER "Leading with Character can help you sharpen and define your potential legacy and, in the course of doing that, will make you a better leader in all aspects of your life." —CHIP BERGH, CEO, Levi Strauss & Co. "As a fan of Dr. Loehr's for over twenty years, I have been amazed by the continued evolution of his concepts while maintaining the initial building blocks he identified over thirty years ago. Leading with Character provides us with the source code required to define our own self-determined purpose while extending our thinking beyond self-interest to incorporate a more fulfilling concern for others." —PETER SCATURRO, former CEO of U.S. Trust, Partner at Goldman Sachs, and Managing Partner at PKS Group "As a journalist, I've been interviewing and writing about business leaders for four decades now, and I firmly believe something has changed profoundly in the last five to ten years. Business leadership has become less about giving orders, more about setting example; less about articulating a detailed strategy, more about setting values, directions, and guard rails. As a result, character becomes much more important. People want to work for someone whom they view as a moral leader, and they will model his or her behavior. The radical transparency of today's world means they will quickly see through leaders who are not authentic, and identify those who are. Character becomes critical." —ALAN MURRAY, CEO, Fortune Media Corporation "The unprecedented challenges of the twenty-first century demand leaders of every stripe who share one common attribute—a strong character of integrity and honor. After a half-century of studying and coaching world-class performers in all walks of life, this special book is Jim Loehr's magnum opus. His rigorous training program applies the modern science of human performance to the classical wisdom of character development. This practical guide is for those who have the courage and perseverance to follow this proven path to a life of significance by becoming your best self. If you are up for the challenge, read this book, turn off social media, and get to work." —CAPTAIN GEORGE DOM, USN (Ret.), former commanding officer and flight leader of the Navy's Blue Angels

Legacy of Leadership by Bob 'Idea Man' Hooey Pdf

"Legacy of Leadership - strive for significance and success, lead with purpose, and communicate with confidence. Idea-rich strategies for serious leaders. Leave behind empowered people who have the courage to step up, speak up, and successfully lead yourself and others." Bob 'Idea Man' Hooey What legacy is being told of you and your team every day? When you're done working, what leadership legacy would you like to leave behind? What are they saying about you right now? What picture would you like your team, your clients, and the community to see and remember about your contributions and work? What would be the ultimate comment or testimonial on your life and contributions in pioneering and living life as an adventure? Why not leave a lasting legacy; a history of strong dynamic leadership that has contributed in a positive way? A legacy of leadership that has engaged, inspired, challenged, and cared for the many you led. Once we understand that we do leave a legacy of leadership behind, we can make a conscious choice to ensure it is a positive one. We can choose to invest our time, resources, and energies in those activities and organizations that create lasting value; as well as in the lives of those we love and respect. As 'serious' leaders we have that opportunity to invest in the lives and success of those we lead. This investment can leave a lasting legacy in their lives and the lives of those they touch. The world needs courageous men and women who are willing to step up and take their leadership role seriously in tackling these pressures and challenges. Whether your leadership path is personal, as a volunteer, serving as an elected official, or is organizational (positional) you do and will make a difference. Choose to make it a positive one! Taking personal responsibility for your own growth and success in that leadership role is worth the investment. This is where you apply 'leverage' to dynamically succeed! Personal leadership - 'The Power of One!' leads to engaging the passion of many and allows you to walk 'In The Company of Leaders'. Thank you for investing your time in reading and allowing me to be a part of your on-going legacy. I wish you significance in your quest to be a more influential, serious, and effective leader. The lessons included in Legacy of Leadership can be applied wherever your leadership path may lead.

The Conviction to Lead by Albert Mohler Pdf

Change the Way You Think about Leadership At the age of thirty-three, Dr. Albert Mohler became the youngest president in the 164-year history of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He was the driving force behind the school's transformation into a thriving institution with an international reputation characterized by a passionate conviction for truth. In the process he became one of the most important and prominent Christian voices in contemporary culture. What will it take to transform your leadership? Effective leaders need more than administrative skills and vision. They need to be able to change the hearts and minds of those they lead. Leadership like this requires passionate beliefs that can stand up to pressure from without and within. In this updated edition Dr. Mohler has added a new introduction and conclusion based on an additional 10 years of leadership. He has also completely rewritten the chapter "The Digital Leader." The Conviction to Lead will crystallize your convictions while revolutionizing your thinking, your decision-making, your communication, and ultimately, those you lead. "Dr. Al Mohler has written a book that shakes us up and challenges our thinking. The Conviction to Lead is poised to become one of the all-time classic works on Christian leadership."--JIM DALY, President - Focus on the Family "Having rarely thought about leadership, I was hooked from the first chapter--to my complete surprise. This is a powerful book and gracefully written."--FRED BARNES, Executive Editor--The Weekly Standard
