Synopsis

Most business failures in recent years have been the result of ineffective leadership. As corporate management styles have transformed from hierarchies to team-centered models, leader roles have become hard to define. Confusion and frustration have resulted, and self-value has plummeted. In New Roles for Leaders, Tom Hornsby and Larry Warkoczeski provide a proven and comprehensive program that guides business leaders through the transition from traditional management to new roles leading, coaching, and empowering their employees. This dynamic masterplan includes real-life cases, explanatory illustrations, and cross-checking exercises. In contrast to old leader roles of controlling and commanding, the authors offer opportunity for new roles for managers that generate excitement in the workplace--an excitement that spills over into the personal lives of both leaders and employees.
