This assumption leads to a search for power but with an either\/or mindset: if I have power, then others cannot have as much as me or they will be a threat. Organizations, when anxious, experience limited ability to learn and change. There is an alternative, paradoxical way to understand leadership. A leader is most effective not by controlling others but by defining himself\/herself. It is critical for leaders to face their fears, challenge their assumptions and thus be able to change their self-perception. A Leadership Paradox outlines such an alternative view of leadership and provides a model for achieving differentiated leadership.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Greg Robinson, Mark Rose\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1418485152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781418485153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Authorhouse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Greg Robinson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44201878651135,"sku":"9781418485153","price":17.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ffedab29-666a-4e88-a94e-0d84d402da4e.jpg?v=1691491957","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-leadership-paradox-greg-robinson-9781418485153","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
