The business world has changed dramatically in recent years and many of the tried-and-true management techniques used in the workplace are no longer applicable. The Connected Leader presents global case studies that show how new approaches to management are improving business performance. This step-by-step guide to the development of a more informal, holistic leadership style contains clear guidelines and diagnostic tools that will help executives improve their effectiveness. Written in a crisp, precise manner, it contains short recaps at the end of each chapter and a summary of key lessons, from ""motivation exists in everyone"" to ""bribery is no longer a performance management option.""
