Become a better leader, right where you are, right now. In Leadership Maxims, Woody Hester shares twelve timeless leadership truths in the context of compelling, real world stories about success and failure that prove these truths to be powerful catalysts for organizational and personal success. In 1970, at the age of twenty-four, U.S. Army Captain Woody Hester returned from a tour of duty in Vietnam. He was assigned to a staff position at the U.S. Army Air Defense Board at Fort Bliss Texas. He was grateful. A break from the rigors of field duty and the stress of living in a combat environment were welcome, but it was his first staff job as an Army officer. It would be the first time in his professional life that he would manage the administrative side of project work and lead a diverse group of uniformed staff and Department of the Army Civilians. Projects came with tight schedules and hard deadlines. Millions of dollars were at stake. Failure would cost him, and those who relied on him, greatly. He was scared. He didn’t have time to digest, process, and learn to apply complicated leadership theory. He needed practical wisdom he could apply immediately. NO MATTER WHAT YOU’VE ACCOMPLISHED, SOMEBODY HELPED YOU. That was the first of a handful of his favorite leadership quotes and ideas (timeless truths) he tacked to a bulletin board over his newly assigned desk. He cut them out of trade magazines and articles he read. What he didn’t know at the time is that this particular timeless truth, the bulletin board itself, and later additions of other timeless truths would provide the practical wisdom he needed; that they would have a profoundly positive impact on his work at the Air Defense Board, and would continue to mean the difference between success and failure throughout his four-decade career in corporate and professional life. Leadership Maxims can be read alone, and also lends itself well to group reading and discussion among leadership learning groups. Emerging, and even seasoned leaders, stand to benefit immensely from the twelve powerful truths presented in this book. Like the practical wisdom Woody needed at the age of twenty-four, readers can quickly internalize and apply these twelve leadership maxims, immediately becoming a better leader.

“Any manager aspiring to superior leadership would be wise to study Gerry’s advice” (H. Wayne Huizenga). Lead with Love is like no other leadership book you have read. Arguing that all leaders must begin with love as their first principle, the author integrates this carefully defined concept into each of his remaining nine key leadership principles—ultimately revealing how passion, and an emotional connection with the organization’s mission, vision and values, will drive success. These ten principles apply to CEOs who lead companies; executive directors who lead nonprofits; chairmen who lead their peers on corporate boards; coaches who lead athletic teams; teachers who lead classes; mothers who lead households; pastors who lead congregations; foremen who get the plant output manufactured every day. If others look to you for leadership, guidance, or inspiration to achieve goals, there’s much to learn in this book that has been praised by tough-minded entrepreneurs and spiritually empowering thought leaders alike.

This thought-provoking and timely book asserts that the dichotomy between leaders and managers described in much business literature fails to recognize how the two roles overlap. The book discusses techniques for senior executives based on history and neuroscience to enhance their "managerial leadership" in different environments. The ethical dilemmas of directors and executives are explored, with lessons from both leadership failures and successes. The Principles and Practice of Effective Leadership redefines "leadership" as a morally neutral activity, reflecting the impact of strategic, cultural and operational contexts on a leader’s effectiveness. The authors suggest there are universal but morally neutral techniques for effective leadership that depend on the context in which they are practiced. In Part 1, the careers and personalities of historical figures including Elizabeth Tudor, Napoleon, and Atatürk are examined. Part 2 deliberates on why leadership cannot be separated from effective management and concludes that leadership is managerial, and best encapsulated in the concept of "wayfinding." In Part 3, the authors discuss the techniques "wayfinders" can learn to be both effective and ethical, using a simple and practical framework. This insightful book is essential reading for professionals, coaches, consultants, and academics interested in techniques and ethics of leadership and executive education.

Silver Medal Winner, Business and Leadership, 2012 Nautilus Book Awards Respected former CEO, professor, and speaker examines what it takes to become a values-based leader In this highly-anticipated book, Harry Kraemer argues that today's business environment demands values-based leaders who, in "doing the right thing," deliver outstanding and lasting results. The journey to becoming a values-based leader starts with self-reflection. He asks, "If you are not self-reflective, how can you know yourself? If you do not know yourself, how can you lead yourself? If you cannot lead yourself, how can you lead others?" Kraemer identifies self-reflection as the first of four principles that guide leaders to make choices that honor their values and candidly recounts how these principles helped him navigate some of the toughest challenges he faced in his career. Offers a framework for adopting the principles of values-based leadership—self-reflection, balance, true self-confidence, and genuine humility—to lead organizations effectively Based on Kraemer's popular Kellogg MBA course on values-based leadership A recognized expert in values-based leadership, Kraemer is a sought after speaker on the subject Lively and engaging, Kraemer's book comes at a critical time when true leadership in every facet of society is desperately needed. All of Harry’s proceeds from the book sales are donated to the One Acre Fund in Africa.

An accessible and inspiring guide to good leadership based on a popular lecture that Dr. Chopra has presented to thousands Very few of us are leaders all the time, in everything we do, but all of us can become a leader in specific situations. In a committee, in business, at a social club or at a religious institution, we all find a time in our lives when we can lead. Few people set out knowingly to become leaders, rather they see a need and they find a way of dealing with it, and often others choose to follow their example. Based on a talk that he has given to more than 60,000 people in at least seven countries, the "LEADERSHIP" mnemonic that Dr. C hopra explains is as follows: L - listen well. E - empathy. A - attitude. D - dreams and decisiveness. E - effectiveness. R - resilience. S - a sense of purpose. H - humility and humor. I - integrity and imagination. P - principles, and willingness to pack other people's parachutes. Drawing from his experience as Faculty Dean for Continuing Education for Harvard Medical School as well as the writings and lives of great leaders throughout history, this easy-to-read, inspiring book will serve as a reminder and a guide to becoming leaders in our own lives.

When Larry L. Mathis was selected CEO of The Methodist Healthcare System in Houston at age 39, he began keeping a journal of the truth as he saw it--in the form of maxims. Each is the product of excruciating experience and told with often hilarious details. The range of Mathis' experiences led him to understand that "Leadership in life and death situations is different than that described in the management books." While his maxims primarily deal with the challenges every leader faces, they also touch on life, love, wisdom and folly. These maxims are valuable and entertaining reading for both the beginning executive and the seasoned executive, especially those in health care leadership.
