Behind Your Boss's Door: What Your Professors Would Never Teach You and Your Boss Will Never Tell You (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781449072032)

Understanding Today's Leadership While Developing Your Own Anyone who desires to become a leader, a manager, or team builder (however you wish to term it) has a plethora of resources at his disposal. He can choose from hundreds of colleges and universities to study at; there are seminars and conferences given by professional speakers; and he can also turn to his bosses and peers. However, he'll soon find himself buried in more information and theories and "secrets" than he knows what to do with-and much of it conflicting! So, what is he to do? The truth is that true leadership comes from within, and what an aspiring leader or an established leader desiring to increase his successes really needs is to push aside all the excess of unnecessary clutter and get to the heart of the matter! What is the essence of true leadership? Is it the special techniques a leader uses? Is it a "power nap"? Is it psychological tricks a leader uses while gazing into a mirror in the morning? Does he need twenty-five laws of leadership (and if so, why not forty)? So much information abounds on this subject-some of it nonsense and some of it legitimate-that I felt it was time that a book was written that kept things real and explained the realities of true leadership while not overcomplicating things. Herein you will find just that. It's time to get back to the bread and butter of leadership!
