Do you want sustained success? Are you ready to become a Ronin Leader?

The Art of Executing Ronin Leadership Strategies - Planning, Alignment, Continuous Improvement follows on the heels of author Mike Howard's bestselling book, The Art or Ronin Leadership - Strategy, Execution, Sustained Success. In that first book, Mike described his own journey of leadership spanning over 40 years as a Police Officer, CIA Operative/Leader and Chief Security officer at Microsoft. That book gave the reader the definition of a Ronin Leader. In this new book, Mike shows the reader the "how to" of Ronin leadership.

• How to implement the various aspects of Ronin Leadership
• The importance of EQ to drive honest, transparent and rigorous debate within teams
• How to build effective teams and strategies to drive your organization to new heights of business success
• How to build business cases for your strategies that will get you the funding and support from the C Suite

In Mike's first book, The Art of Rōnin Leadership, the emphasis was about the path you take to become a leader—an entirely different way of thinking than merely fixing what is not working or doing better at what has always been done. In The Art of Executing Ronin Leadership Strategies, Mike delivers the tactics and plans that the first book revealed. It is not just a road map, but a practical guide for leaders to implement and drive business success for themselves and their teams. This book takes Ronin Leadership to a new dimension of leadership!
