There's no mistaking what a
great leader does. The real challenge is to know how it's done. Understanding
the nuances of putting leadership into action has long been the specialty of
Michael Feiner, the former chief people
officer at Pepsi-Cola and current management professor at Columbia Graduate
School of Business. Now, in this hands-on, plain-speaking, practical guide,
Feiner shares his hard-won expertise and gives you detailed solutions to the
everyday problems of leadership.
THE FEINER POINTS OF LEADERSHIP
...offers fifty insightful laws covering everything from managing tough
bosses and difficult subordinates, to dealing with uncooperative colleagues, to
overcoming resistance to corporate change. Based on Feiner's experiences as an
aspiring executive, senior leader, and management consultant, THE FEINER POINTS
shows you that leadership has little to do with grand strategies or personal
charisma.
And the author's tales from the trenches will make you smile as you discover:
- The Law of Building a Cathedral: Leaders convince their people that they're
building a cathedral, not cutting stone
- The Law of Class vs. Style: Never...ever...ever...ever treat your boss like
a bumbling old fool (even if he or she is one)
- The Law of Winning Championships: No matter how talented the team, team
members have different agendas-and leaders know what they are
- The Law of the Silent Sinner: If you can't tell anyone what you're doing,
don't do it!
- The Law of the Onion: High-Performance Leaders look beneath the surface-and
never assume anything
- The Law of the Tombstone: Remember what's really important-and that your
net worth won't be noted on your final resting place.
With an easy-to-access appendix that lists typical office problems and points
you to the laws that can solve them, THE FEINER POINTS OF LEADERSHIP will help
you right away-with dramatic and measurable results that ensure the long-term
success of both your career and your organization.
