Title: Becoming a Powerful and Effective Leader

Subtitle: Tips and Techniques That IT Managers Can Use in Order to Develop Leadership Skills

Author: Jim Anderson

Narrator: Jim Anderson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 56 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-16-16

Publisher: Blue Elephant Consulting

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Business, Leadership

Publisher's Summary:

When you find yourself in a leadership position, you'll want to make the most of it. This means that you want to be viewed as being both powerful and effective. In order to make this happen, you need to have a good understanding of what leadership is really all about.

One of the most important things that you'll need to understand in order to be effective is that leadership is not all about you. Rather, it's about the people that you are leading and what they are looking for from you. To lead a group of people you'll need to make sure that you have the personal skills that this kind of task requires. You'll need to use these skills to help your team make progress in implementing your company's goals.

The good news is that you don't have to make all of this up by yourself. You can observe other leaders who are successful and then emulate what they are doing. You'll need to make sure that the signals that you are sending to the team are clear and easily understood. Although there are differences between business and sports, you'll still need to play the role of a coach in order to help your team be successful.

As we are all too well aware, on any given day a crisis can hit our part of the IT department. As an effective IT leader, you need to prepare for these events before they happen. One part of getting ready is to make sure that your entire team shares the same vision that you have for what the team is going to be able to accomplish. The good news is that this is all possible to do, you just need to master the IT leadership skills that are going to allow you to make it happen.

Title: DefrICtion: Unleashing Your Enterprise to Create Value from Change

Subtitle: FruITion, Book 3

Author: Chris Potts

Narrator: Tom Taverna

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 23 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-19-16

Publisher: Technics Publications

Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Business, Leadership

Publisher's Summary:

Michael is CEO of a $64 billion global corporation, driving a strategy founded on productivity and growth. Despite having "best practices" spearheaded by finance in place, he's convinced that many of the company's investments in change are still not delivering the most value they can - or even the value they promised. Late one night, while reading a hard-to-believe business case for an IT transformation, he makes it his business to find out why.

With the help of his inner circle of trusted executives and managers, and the serendipitous appearance of a friend-of-a-friend, Michael discovers what's been missing all along in the boardroom, the businesses, and the company culture. He is faced with deciding if it's worth it to sort things out once and for all, with a strategy that combines enterprise architecture and investing in change.

In this conclusion to the trilogy that began with FruITion and continued with RecrEation, Michael finds that the consequences for everyone are part cultural, part structural, and part operational. They mean challenging some of the orthodoxies that were supposed to solve the problems, but have made things worse instead. What will he choose to do?

A must read

I just finished reading the 3rd book in this series and I am sure that I will read them all at least twice. Every section has insightful information that can be used to reflect on our day to day work.

Though the book is not intended to be a reference book of any sort, it guides you on how to think and evolve.

Five Stars

Loved the whole series. Quick to read, delivers point well.

Yes

Great story with deep message that anyone in Corp America can relate to. I will read this again for sure.

Title: The Gift of Anger

Subtitle: How to Use Passion to Build, Not Destroy

Author: Joe Solmonese

Narrator: Tom Dheere

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 54 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-09-16

Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Business, Leadership

Publisher's Summary:

Under Joe Solmonese's leadership, the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest LGBT rights organization, became the model other organizations look toward to create effective social and political change. Ranked among the National Journal's top five most effective groups, HRC was instrumental in passing landmark national legislation such as the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell, and the passage of marriage equality in eight states.

Beginning with a moving story of working with Matthew Shepard's mother Virginia in passing the hate crimes bill that bears Matthew's name, Solmonese shows how he discovered that channeled anger can drive a commitment to change. Mrs. Shepard taught him to keep his unquestionably justifiable anger from blinding him in the moment, and instead use it strategically, in the service of a larger purpose. In this book he uses the lessons he learned during his tenure at HRC, as well as his previous position as the CEO of Emily's List, and his current work as a corporate consultant, to teach listeners how they can affect real, lasting change in society and at work. His often-surprising lessons may not be entirely expected or celebrated by all groups, e.g., don't shame your enemies, find allies wherever you can, and ask for the doable, not the impossible. Most striking in this book are the stories of Joe's ability to draw some kind of win - however small - from seeming enemies. Many of these former enemies became stalwart allies over time. Joe's book is more concerned with the "long game" of changing culture and achieving long-term goals, not the "short game" of enforcing purity or litmus tests.

Members Reviews:

Great informaiton, espeically for someone considering becoming a coach!

This book is a valuable read that has quite a lot to offer in the areas of understanding the processes of coaching and mentoring and much more. I felt that it gave tangible information that can be applied easily even for the beginning coach. In fact, it would be an exceptional start for those whom are considering coaching as a career but aren't quite sure what niche to go into or what the career entails. There are a lot of programs out there designed to certify a coach, however this is designed in my mind to aide a potential coach and also to give some great insight for a seasons coach. With important information like different types of coaching, the processes and even giving tools such as GROW and the Wheel of Life (which I have used myself), this one is a real winner. I was fortunate enough to receive this book for free in exchange for my honest review. This one easily garners 5 stars from me.

Not Just for Leaders!

Not just for leaders! This great book can be used as a tool for reaching goals and setting realistic solutions in your personal life too. I have gleaned a lot of wisdom not just in relation to mentoring and guiding others, but in solving challenges and reaching goals in my own life. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking into coaching or learning to up your game in mentoring, but also anyone willing to change their life and start seeing more positive results. Loved everything about this. Overflowing with info and explanations on various techniques, but also filled with helpful questions and ways to implement things. Very good resource and highly recommended!

A great coaching guide!

I believe that coaching is a very challenging task because the coach must have a strong character and leadership qualities to effectively inspire others and propel them in a certain direction. I recommend this book because it provides valuable insights and strategies to become a better coach and ultimately a better person.

Goes Deeper

He did great job of explaining coaching. Some books just hit the surface. He went below the surface. He gave so many processes and explained how and why they work.

a great book on topical issues

If you have read other coaching books then this book is another to add to it, a great book on topical issues.

Applying true leadership principles

This book did a very thourough job at explaining the true job of a leader - to inspire those around them to be the very best at what they can be. I have been in a recent phase of trying to read more and learn more about true, effective leadership and the skills that make up a great leader. This book brings that all into focus, and uses quotes and examples from great leaders to back it up. I also liked the simplicity of this book, being able to cover a lot of great information in a very informative and basic logical way. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to learn more about applying true leadership principles into their work and life.

Learn how to be a leader not a ruler......

For me leadership is more of a calling. There are people who are naturally born leaders, of cos with exposure and more experience they become better at it. Others are rulers. Unfortunately most people in leadership positions are more of rulers than leaders. I have been in leadership positions for almost all my life. To start with I am a first born to my two brothers. The society usually has a way of making the boy child feel superior to the girl child but leadership is in no way related to gender. Leadership is in-born and it is a skill too. I have several books and articles on leadership because I am always on the lookout to know how to be a good leader in the different positions I have been blessed to lead. This book contains 8 different laws of leadership. In my wide reading I have met very many laws of leadership. I am not sure how these laws are invented or who exactly comes up with them but for me somehow they work. For this book, number 8 was my most preferred.

Title: Breaking the Fear Barrier

Subtitle: How Fear Destroys Companies from the Inside Out and What to Do About It

Author: Tom Rieger

Narrator: Mel Foster

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-14-16

Publisher: Brilliance Audio

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Business, Leadership

Publisher's Summary:

The greatest threat to an organization's success is not always the competition. Often, it is what a company does to itself. Because of fear, companies become plagued with barriers and bureaucracy that limit success, crush employees, and infuse frustration and a sense of futility across the enterprise. It starts with a narrowing of focus, which leads to the first level of bureaucracy: parochialism. Parochialism exists when managers and departments begin to view the world through the filter of their own little silo and build walls made of rules and policies to protect their turf. As businesses grow and become more complex, the second level of bureaucracy is reached: territorialism. While parochialism is about protecting a department from outsiders, territorialism is about controlling those inside the silo. The third and final level of bureaucracy is empire building, which is a response to perceived threats to a department's ability to be self-sufficient. These barriers cost organizations a fortune in inefficiency, turnover, waste, and demoralization.

Tearing down these barriers is difficult, but it can be done. Parochialism can be eliminated by resetting rules and policies and refocusing on the ultimate mission of the organization. Territorialism can be eliminated by creating true empowerment, along with appropriate levels of accountability. Empire building can be addressed through shared goals and a set of guiding principles that help act as a referee in decision making.

But that's not enough. Managers must also create a culture of courage to enable employees to take advantage of these new freedoms and accountabilities. Courage killers must be rooted out and dealt with swiftly and strongly. Finally, leaders must refocus on mission success rather than just checking off their part of the process, manage reference points, and engage employees.

By doing all these things, an organization can become fearless and unstoppable.

Members Reviews:

Shallow but spot on

I was torn on how many stars to give the book - on the one hand it does a brilliant job of illustrating how destructive fear-based controls are to engagement, productivity, and service but on the other hand, gives sparse, general, and shallow suggestions on how to overcome these issues. Perhaps a more accurate title would be "Diagnosing the Fear Barrier?"

He also opens and closes the book with a fictional case study full of hyperbole and magical transformation - not very compelling. The specific companies and their experiences he cites in the body of the text do a much better job of making the author's points. For senior management and executives seriously looking at transforming their company culture, this is a quick and accessible place to start (and a real world look at how so many of us find the condescending oversight that limits our contributions). For middle managers and frontline supervisors, you'll just nod your head and roll your eyes in recognition but not take away much meaningful guidance on how you can effect the change your workplace so badly needs.

MAKE FEAR YOUR FRIEND AND MOTIVATOR~~~!!!!

Just remember that we all have a choice to make use of the entire spectrum of our lives. Fear is part of the journey.
