C225 24 CPEUs $139.95 NEW

According to the expert reviewer Dr. Richard Patterson: "This is an outstanding well-written Book, 228 pgs & study guide, 42 pgs, that covers the discipline of leadership from the perspective of leadership researchers and experts. The format of the book not only makes it an easy read, but provides timely and in-depth information on leadership. It is both a theory and a 'how to' book which differentiates it from most leadership books which dwell only on theory. At a time when both our country and industry are over-managed and under-led, I believe this book is a must read for everyone. I feel so strongly about the timeliness and appropriateness of the contents of this book, I am going to adopt it as required reading in one of my senior-level capstone classes." This high impact CPE program will enable you to:

  • Differentiate among specific leadership approaches and apply the concepts that will enable you to improve your and your team's performance
  • Apply specific steps to increase your probability of success in a new leadership role
  • Implement reward and recognition strategies that will achieve improved performance and job satisfaction
  • Motivate different generations more effectively
  • Master specific steps that will increase the level of trust in your organization
  • Apply specific rules to increase team motivation
  • Discover the power of pushing decisions down to the lowest possible level

  • Lead effectively during tough times
  • Plus much, much more.
