Publisher's Synopsis
How to Lead without Domineering: 29 Smart Leadership Rules is a tool book that contains valuable suggestions for self-reflection by leaders in a variety of roles - on the job, in a honorary post, or in any other context. Leaders reach their own limits and the limits of others, but how can they overcome these limits? What is characteristic for a good leader and how is it possible to achieve one's objectives in cooperation with others? Wise leaders support contexts, form relationships, and promote spirit by consolidating the momentum or the dynamic of groups, teams, and organizations. These leaders rarely use commands or lay down the law. Clever leadership implies taking risks, as leaders who adopt the principles of this book give up one-dimensional arguing and if-then-logic statements. Dr. Arnold presents different tools for clever and effective leadership and shows how typical challenges for today's leader can be met. His book is based on recent scientific findings in the field of leadership research and on almost thirty years of practical experience as a leader, supervisor, and coach within different fields and organizations worldwide.
