The Cart Before Horse: Practical Considerations for Workplace Leadership

What does good leadership look like? This is a verydifficult question to answer. And most peoplebelieve they have the answer. The reality is that itis far easier to describe what poor leadership looks like,because it is subjective and universal. Rather than diginto every example of poor leadership behavior, the bookaddresses four prominent leadership themes: workplaceculture, communication, leader performance, and conflict.But there's a twist! The author uses a story, a modern fable, ifyou will, to illustrate each theme, then provides the thematiccontext, and then provides questions to help each readermake meaning of the context in their own workplace, in theirown leadership journey. The reader is invited into a world ofimagination AND critical thinking. Rather than receive a setof steps to follow, the reader is presented with considerationswhere they get to analyze their own workplace situations andapply the concepts which they find most suitable, in theirown way. In essence, the purpose of this book is not to teachbut to encourage learning and development.
