Learning to Become a Visionary Leader

Based on years of research and teaching/consulting experience, here is a practical book for leaders at all levels on how to develop their visionary leadership skills. Most books on leadership will provide some good theory, some case studies and even some compelling biographies of visionary leaders - but no hands-on information on how to do it. Thousands of managers have attended visionary leadership workshops conducted by Dr Zandvoort all over the world and according to the research conducted at the Ashridge Leadership Centre in the UK, more than 80% of all the workshop participants who took the processes taught in the workshops (and explained in this book) seriously, experienced positive life changing events. The book has been written as an easy-to-access pocket guide with lots of space for reflection, practical information and useful exercises. Not only will you have the opportunity to enhance your leadership skills, the processes described in this book will also help you to become successful in other areas of your life.

Visionary Leadership and Emotional Management

For the Digital Age

In 1990 the digital age was born with the internet providing the pathway to so many new and better ways to do almost everything. Digital entrepreneurs have damaged many analogue business models during the past 25 years. That first digital generation has just ended and it is clear that nothing will ever be the same again - and that change will accelerate to affect most business models as this second digital generation gains pace. Many of these business models are obsolete and must falter and fall. Whatever business you are involved with, at whatever level, you must appreciate that the world has changed and how further changes will inevitably affect your business as this second digital generation begins. The ability to gaze wisely into this likely future is described as "Visionary Leadership." Put simply it is the ability to realize the implications of change and be as ready for it as you can possibly be. It is about planning for change and not reacting too late to events that will damage so many business models during the next 25 years. This challenging second digital generation has just begun. The ability to understand likely future change is part of the answer to reducing the impact of digital risk. The second, and probably of equal importance, is how you train yourself to control your emotions and your attitude, to give yourself the very best chance to lead and manage those you work with. The ability to consider other leaders who you respect and to mirror their skills, their behaviour and their attitude is necessary. This "Emotional Management" will help you to control your thoughts and emotions and to be best able to do what is necessary to move the business forward. The author has worked at or near the top of businesses involved in banking & commerce, manufacturing, retail and supply; as a director and a manager and as an adviser. In many years of working with those who set out to lead others he has assembled a kit bag of best practices that seemed to him to enable and facilitate best performance, and to guide and coach others along the new path required to respond to the challenges of the digital age now entering its second generation. Let him help you to understand what the future of business looks like and how to respond to the digital changes that are coming.

An examination of leadership and self-management techniques to equip you for the dramatic changes brought about by the digital revolution.

Global Explorers

The Next Generation of Leaders

In this age of globalization challenges--from economic uncertainty to emerging markets--there are no mapped out answers for the international manager. Global Explorers guides the global manager from the periphery to the center stage of international business leadership. In a 1997 survey of Fortune 500 firms conducted by authors J. Stewart Black, Allen J. Morrison and Hal B. Gregersen, virtually all companies indicated there was a severe shortage of global leaders. The demand for competent global leaders far outstrips the supply. Global Explorers provides the skills and outlines the competencies future global managers need to fill the leadership gap. Using extensive research, real-life examples, and 130 in-depth interviews with senior executives representing 50 global companies, including IBM, Disney, Exxon and Sony, Global Explorers suggests the reasons for the global leadership shortage, and identifies the necessary skills to compete in the international marketplace. For managers who want to safeguard their corporate future in these changing times, Global Explorers will help them develop a personal program for developing and balancing the skills they need to become successful global leaders.

What Is Global Leadership?

10 Key Behaviors That Define Great Global Leaders

What is global leadership? It turns out that many companies around the world are missing a key point: that global leadership is distinctly different from the leadership skills needed in a domestic operation. The global economy requires a new set of leadership skills-imbued with a global mindset, multi-functional and effective across cultures and nationalities-that were not as critical even a decade ago. In What Is Global Leadership?, the authors draw on cutting-edge research conducted by Aperian Global, including first-hand interviews with successful global leaders, which highlights ten key behaviors critical to international settings, such as cultural self-awareness, frame-shifting, and developing "third-way solutions." In addition to providing a detailed description of each behavior, the authors demonstrate how these can be applied in the context of leadership development programs, executive coaching, global teams, and leader-led action learning. Whether one is leading an entire organization, a business unit, or a geographically dispersed team, this essential guide provides an important resource for developing global leadership talent.
