Level Three Leadership: Getting Below the Surface - Couverture souple

Providing readers with the practical perspectives that get below the surface of leadership!

In this second edition of Level Three Leadership, James G. Clawson expands on his original model to provide readers with the practical, rather than theoretical, perspectives of leadership. In this rapidly changing Information Age, the important shift for leaders is to influence people's values and assumptions rather than just their behavior or thoughts.

• Chapter 6, "A Leader's Guide to Why People Behave the Way They Do," provides a model of human behavior, and presents the basis building blocks of Level Three analysis.
• Chapters on strategy, resonance, leading others, leading teams, organizational design, and leading change have all been updated to include emerging research and perspectives.
• The workbook section includes new instruments for assessing leadership and team characteristics.
• An appendix summarizing leadership theory has been added to give students a quick overview of the major perspectives currently being practiced.
