The Leadership Code

Five Rules to Lead

De: Dave Ulrich, Norm Smallwood

Narrado por: Erik Synnesvetd

Crack the leadership code - and take your leadership to the next level. What makes a great leader? It's a question that has been tackled by thousands. In fact, there are literally tens of thousands of leadership studies, theories, frameworks, models, and recommended best practices. But where are the clear, simple answers we need for our daily work lives? Are there any?

Dave Ulrich, Norm Smallwood, and Kate Sweetman set out to answer these questions - to crack the code of leadership. Drawing on decades of research experience, the authors conducted extensive interviews with a variety of respected CEOs, academics, experienced executives, and seasoned consultants - and heard the same five essentials repeated again and again.

These five rules became The Leadership Code. In The Leadership Code, the authors break down great leadership into day-to-day actions, so that you know what to do Monday morning.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The authors of The Leadership Code use insights from themselves and others to come up with rules for effective management." ( Financial Times)

A Practical view on leadership

I liked the practícales practical strategies to diagnose and develop leadership in organizations. I particularly liked the concept of leadership Brand presented towards the end of the book. Thank you.

Great codes. this will influence my career growth.

The codes are excellent and will influence my decision making skills and career growth. The examples given are a little dated and lack depth. I was hoping for a little deeper information on how well known examples made their decisions.

A lot of work is expected to follow the Leadership Code, however, successfully doing so appear to have great results. I look forward yo following this path.

Grounded survey of leadership

These guys are among the best researchers and consultants on leadership, so it's no surprise that their book is well grounded in real practice and a strong survey of all the facets of leadership. It's brief, mostly casting vision for what leadership should be and offering only a little on how to get there. Worth reading for any leader.

Waste of time

In spite of liking Dave Ulrich and his great book HR champion, this one is not even close. Never-ending stories about leadership...
