Creating an EVEN Greater Whole (häftad, eng)

Leadership is not a solo sport. It is about people and how they engage with each other -- not the individual leader or their ego. Becoming an Emotionally Intelligent leader is about shifting your mindset for success. As a technical expert, your performance was measured by how much information you knew.

As a leader, you are now measured by how well your team performs. The transition from me to we can be difficult. This is a normal reaction, and it takes time to shift the mindset.

Creating an EVEN Greater Whole: Becoming an Emotionally Intelligent Leader offers managers a different perspective and some tools they can use to more easily navigate their own leadership journey toward becoming an Emotionally Intelligent leader.

The book begins by exploring different traits attributed to leaders and then discusses the practical application of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and human-based leadership skills.

From this starting point, it introduces the leadership basics of aligning your vision and communicating your message that enables people to work collaboratively. The book also addresses how to handle people with different communications and working styles, as well as how to best motivate people, so they fully engage and bring their best self into the workplace.

It also provides tools to minimize potentially explosive situations that accompany uncertainty, risk, and conflict. The book concludes with a look at the human element of leaders and how leaders use their unique style to navigate the unknown.
