This book from Lilya Wagner, Leading Up Transformational Leadership for Fundraisers, challenges traditional leadership models that emphasize positional authority. The author argues that effective leadership in the fundraising profession can and should exist at all levels, even without formal leadership titles. Wagner encourages readers to develop their leadership skills by focusing on core competencies like emotional intelligence, ethical practice, and a servant-leadership approach. The book uses examples, anecdotes, and models to show how fundraisers can build their influence, gain support from superiors, and motivate others to achieve organizational goals.
