UR - https://www.unicat.be/uniCat?func=search&query=sysid:78643482 AB - It's people who make organizations great, so how can leaders best help their people achieve that greatness? Jennings and Stahl-Wert show you can't just demand greatness- you have to inspire it. The most effective leaders don't just stand in front of their people, they stand behind them too. As one of the characters in the book notes, "You qualify to be first by putting other people first." They use a fictional story to outline the basics of serving leadership, all the characters are based on real people, the organizations depicted are based on real organizations - and the results they achieved are what really happened. This edition features a new foreword by Ken Blanchard, a new introduction and a new chapter checking back in with Mike, the main character, to see what he has learned in the twelve years since he embraced serving leadership. -- ER -
