Inhaltsangabe

High-performance teams require a special kind of leader. It is not about the leader, but the team or more precisely the leader in service to the team. The purpose of this book is to reframe your thinking about leadership from an individual concept to a team experience. Such leadership begins with a virtue-driven person of character with a keen sense of emotional intelligence and is then integrated with the ability to harness the personalities, abilities, experiences of other people to serve something larger than any single person.

• Leadership begins with you but is not about you.
• Ultimately it is about the team and not about the leader.
• This is a book about developing leaders for high performance teams.
• It is a book about the needs of teams as much as it is a book about leaders.
• Organizational magic happens when teams develop swing—when there is a total synthesis of values, effort, and direction. This is the goal of every team—whether in business, government, church, or athletics. But it does not happen without a certain kind of leader.
• This book shows leaders how to achieve swing.

You will learn about:

• the attitudes effective leaders need
• the attributes of character leaders require
• the accountability necessary to implement leadership in service of swing, and
• the creation of a new network of courageous leaders for America.

This book is the on-ramp for sustainable personal, institutional, and national change.
