Finding Joy in Leadership: By Developing Trust You Can Count On, Paperback

Let's face it: leadership is hard work. Leaders are frequently expected to create visions that will inspire creativity and ingenuity within their organizations while at the same time satisfying the expected growth and profit margins of those to whom they report. Unfortunately, this inherent balancing act often overwhelms the leader, forcing them to choose growth or profit over creativity and ingenuity to ensure that they survive to "fight another day." As a result, leaders focus on satisfying and convincing their supervisors that "things are well in hand," and that all goals will be met or exceeded. But how?

Without trusting followers, there is no need for leaders. When leaders fail to invest in those who follow them, they lose the solutions to creativity and ingenuity that they were hired to bring about. The inherent tension between leading their followers and satisfying their supervisors robs the leader of any joy in the leadership process and has a direct impact on any joy within the organization. By employing a proven process developed during empirical research, Dr Phillips presents a common sense approach to developing trust within the leadership relationship that will bring out the creativity and ingenuity that are critical to solving the challenges facing modern-day organizations.

When leaders foster two-way or mutually accountable relationships within their organization through this proven process, they can enjoy the fruits of that investment and-the chances are-the organization will as well. Finding Joy in Leadership is the essential book for you if you seek a solution to better balance the leadership responsibilities you daily face!
