Enlightened Leadership
Autor Ed Oakley Doug Krugen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 1994
The key lies in showing those who would be "change agents" how to capitalize on their organization's greatest asset: the under-utilized talent, expertise, and energy of its existing staff. The authors' program is based on maximizing the contributions of "all" employees -- by sharing information, decision-making, and planning with them -- creating a shared culture of organizational goals, strategies, and methods.
Managers and leaders at all levels -- from small business owners to corporate strategists -- can use Oakley and Krug's proven techniques, including planning, communication, and motivational tools, to support their employees in effecting the positive changes that will make the difference in achieving their organizations' bottom-line goals.
