Synopsis

BOLD leaders in existing organizations see well beyond the current business, see the potential available to them, and both appreciate and relish the transformational challenge to win. They will invent the future from the position they start with today. They are leaders who view market dynamics opportunistically, are excited by the challenges, can imagine the possibilities and translate them to their colleagues, and who will assemble teams to drive the needed changes to successful conclusion. And then they will do it again.

Do you know who the BOLD leaders are in your organization?

Review

The last thing we need is another book on leadership. What we do need, however, is an informed conversation about identifying and managing extraordinary leaders. Chris s book, BOLD, online self-assessment, research blog, and companion resources, support such a conversation in an accessible way. I enjoyed the insights gleaned from over 100 executive interviews and appreciated the lighthearted, pragmatic tone of Chris s work. --Tom Curren, social entrepreneur, former McKinsey Consultant, and Marriott International executive

I have been in lots of leadership discussions lately. They tend to focus on people, not characteristics. You know the drill, this person is a great leader and this one isn't. Chris s book, BOLD is focused on the characteristics of leaders who can drive positive, dramatic and fast growth in organizations. Who doesn t want that?! --Dr. Reed K. Holden, Founder of Holden Advisors and Author

Herself a bold leader, Chris provides invaluable insight into the characteristics and requirements of leadership in a time of dynamic change. Chris is adept at codifying insights from scores of interviews with leaders who ve demonstrated acumen and ingenuity, who ve navigated tough calls and hard decisions, and who ve built and transformed organizations. --Sara Gavin, President of Weber Shandwick North America
