There is a revolution going on in businesses, communities and governments across the globe. Have you seen the uprising yet? Have you felt it? Once power and position ruled the land and boardrooms, but today that model of influence is in rapid decline, its foundation cracking from the bottom up. And what we find replacing those 1960’s style “Mad Men” ways of leading is one simple word – character. Character counts . . . perhaps now more than ever. Are you ready to join the legions of other leaders who believe? …being an effective leader is NOT about your title or position, but rather about who you choose to be and the difference you choose to make. …that character is the only lasting foundation for truly effective leadership; …that it is up to each and every one of us to be the kind of leader we so desperately yearn for where we live and work.It’s written by 21 of your peers focusing on a single theme: leading with character, from who you are rather than your position or title, is the essential foundation for effective leadership. “The Character-Based Leader: Instigating a Leadership Revolution…One Person at a Time was Written with YOU in Mind! “The Character-Based Leader” explores distinct perspectives and practical approaches to addressing topics such as trust, humility, integrity, communication, walking the talk, balancing relationships and results, leading from within, and more. It infuses some of the most current leadership thinking with some of the best ideas on how each of us can weave character into how we think, how we act, and how we can develop ourselves and others into inspiring leaders!
