Roland S. Barth
Author, Lessons Learned
Make the leap from perception to performance with cutting-edge brain-based techniques!
Effective leadership hinges not only on understanding the nature of human intelligence, but also, more importantly, on applying the principles that nurture it. Taking leaders from knowledge about the value of brain-based leadership, to action based on the best available research is what this inspiring guide is all about.
Building on principles introduced in their groundbreaking book Connecting Leadership to the Brain, this latest work empowers leaders with the practical tools they need to immediately impact others′ learning and achievement. The authors present a broad repertoire of highly practical "how to" strategies and practices for building capacity and achieving results in a learning organization.
Unique features of this text include:
- Integrated intuitive reflection exercises
- Definition of leadership within the context of the 21st century
- Practical tips for understanding―and nurturing―the nature of intelligence
- A repertoire of 15 leadership strategies and 101 aligned practices
- Reasons and ways to cultivate a culture of learning and achievement
Short stories and subsequent "reflection zones" throughout the book help us to examine what we know about leadership through our experiences, and offer compelling insights into enhancing leadership through the brain-based techniques provided.
