Leading From The Middle - E-book - ePub

Leading from the Middle is co-written by professionals with a variety of leadership positions. This resource shares empowering messages to help you take control of your environment by seeing yourself as an actionable leader today. This book is all about leading without authority. If you do not have the title of "leader" within a team or organization, then this book is for you! This is a leadership book 'for the rest of us.' Part of the reason that we wrote this book is due to the dearth of resources for those in non-positional leadership positions.
CEOs can drive action through multiple modalities--from offering bonuses to firing ineffective employees. But what about the team member who just wants to help her group succeed? Or, the team member who doesn't have a budget at his disposal, how can he help the group along? How does the team member that has zero authority, but needs maximum influence, accomplish the core mission? The authors share experiences ranging from sports to the military.
Through their shared experiences, they hope that you will also find camaraderie. This resource offers actionable items to foster change on your team today. Finally, take the 30-day leadership challenge to close the book with specific, action oriented next steps.
