If you own a business, serve as a board director, manage a team, or are just starting out in management, you're responsible for leading others. Your success as a leader depends upon your team's success. If they're moving forward, you're leading well. If they're struggling, you're not leading your team the way they need to be led. You've no doubt heard that before, but in this beautifully written and designed book, leadership consultant Liz Weber takes you through her amazingly simple five stage model to pinpoint why your team is facing the challenges it is -- and what YOU need to change to help move them forward. This updated second edition is a quick-read and perfect for the busy executive with its easy-to-skim format, easy-to-find key summary points, and suggested discussion questions for immediate use with teams large and small. With its smart design, you can read this as a stand-alone leadership book or pair it with a workbook to create a powerful individual or team learning experience. As one seminar attendee said, "The questions alone are powerful!" Other leaders have read this book, learned The Five Stages of Focused Leadership Development(TM), and changed how they lead.
