Publisher Comments:

"Staying Alive Through The Dangers Of Leading".

Book News Annotation:

Heifetz and Linsky (both John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard U.) discuss how to survive and thrive on the dangers of leadership. They address leadership at all levels, from parents to everyday workers, managers and community activists, presidents of organizations and of countries. They examine why and how leadership is dangerous, how that danger drives some people "out of the game," possible strategies to reduce the risk of getting pushed aside, ways that people contribute to their own demise, ways to manage personal vulnerabilities, and how to keep one's spirit alive in the face of adversity. This text takes a more personal and practical approach to expand on ideas raised in Heifetz's earlier book, Leadership Without Easy Answers.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Synopsis:

A survival manual for leaders that explains what they need to know to survive the professional and personal perils of leading, and how to exercise leadership in a way that reduces the chances of getting pushed aside.
