This guide is for new and experienced leaders and managers, MBA students, educators, coaches, and trainers. In a conversational style, the guide offers a new perspective on leadership, personal development, and lifelong learning, with an emphasis on health and well-being. The book begins with a leadership manifesto of 11 principles, then devotes chapters to each of the 11 principles. A glossary and an extract from a learning journal are included, along with b&w graphics. Annotation ©2021 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
The Integrated Leader is a contemporary search for the questions to which 'leader' or 'leadership' are an answer. Taking a thoughtful approach to management education and learning, this book promises to cover several ideas not usually found in books written for managers. Its purpose is to provoke the kind of reflection and thinking that experience (and endless leadership training) tend not to reach.The book will get leaders and managers to stop and think. This may not sound like much, but it is very important and significant. It represents a shift in gears in personal leadership thinking and is written for anyone who wants to ask better questions of themselves. The Integrated Leader is practical and also philosophical. It is easy to read and will reward multiple readings. Informed by the experience of practicing managers in education, it does not simply regurgitate tired old leadership theory, and it neither talks down to the reader, or dumb down any of the complex concepts needed to sustain organisational and personal health and well-being.The backbone of the book is the Manifesto itself, an eleven-point declaration for leading self in various contexts. Each Manifesto item is a starting point for further reflection and development.
