Description
This book explores what makes wise leaders successful. It's based on thousands of conversations with leaders and argues that they don't shy away from tough challenges.
Instead, these leaders create conditions for colleagues to engage with difficult issues enthusiastically. The book draws on observations of leaders in various settings, including schools, to make the case that relationships between individuals are key to an organisation's success or failure.
The author shows how top leaders navigate high challenge and low threat, creating conditions for productive work despite daily difficulties. By embracing challenges rather than avoiding them, these leaders demonstrate a practical approach to leadership that others can learn from.
