Leadership in the Hood: Talking About Leadership Application and Management Issues in Organisations (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781504313759)

Hoods are informal groups and formal organizations that can create synergies and help us achieve more than we could on our own. A hood is an apt metaphor as it suggests that organizations arent always simple and nice. Theyre compiled of teams that should be working in synchronicity, with direction, and in harmony for the benefit of stakeholders. Leading these hoods, however, isnt so simple as leaders must do more than obtain consensus; they must get people excited about executing a strategy, innovating with constant improvement, and adding value. Veteran business executive Bob Sutton shares lessons and strategies so you can: make individual team members better at what they do; eliminate dysfunction that can hurt operating results; back up your business vision with strategy; and empower people to operate within clear boundaries. The author also highlights ways to improve systems and processes, brand management techniques, navigating succession, business culture, and how to keep team members engaged. Whether you are just starting out as a leader or have been on your journey for many years, youll find insights you can use in Leadership in the Hood.
