Résumé

Leadership is a balancing act. It requires communicating a compelling vision, convincing others to buy into that vision, and marshaling resources and talent to make it happen. This guide helps new and seasoned leaders master the complex art of the leadership role by improving decision making and communication, earning trust and building momentum, and inspiring and enabling others to excel. Managers are under increasing pressure to deliver better results faster than the competition. But meeting today's tough challenges requires complete mastery of a full array of management skills, from communicating and coaching to public speaking and managing people. The Results-Driven Manager series helps time-pressed managers hone and polish the skills they need most. Concise, action-oriented, and packed with invaluable strategies and tools, these timely guides help managers improve their job performance today and give them the edge they need to become the leaders of tomorrow.
