A guide to mastering the three central types of leadership for ultimate success.
Research indicates that less than one-third of employees are truly engaged. The vast majority of employees simply show up to work each day prepared to do the minimum to get by. While those employees who are productive and loyal to the organization are appreciated, the key to success lies in the ability to lead disengaged employees.
To move employees from disengagement to engagement, leaders must create a culture that shows employees they are actively engaged at all levels of leadership. 'Engaged Leadership' breaks down the art of effective leadership into three primary areas that all great leaders must master to achieve uncommon results. Author Clint Swindall explains the three kinds of leadership: Directional leadership which creates a vision for the organization; Motivational leadership which inspires the team to carry out that vision; and Operational leadership which ensures that day-to-day operations are completed. Though many leaders excel in one or two of these areas, great leaders excel in all three. Here, Swindall coaches readers to attain excellence in all three areas of leadership through firsthand stories, proven leadership practices, and inspirational guidance.
