Book Awards
Almost 70% of Americans believe that we are suffering from a
crisis of leadership, but rather than asking, why are leaders
failing, we need to ask, "Why aren't we choosing better
leaders?"
Ever wonder what goes on behind closed board room doors when
organizations pick their top leaders? It can be a contentious,
secretive, even brutal process. Most of our leaders look good on
paper--they have charisma, credentials, and
confidence--yet they lack the real qualities that are
necessary to succeed. In Why Are We Bad at Picking Good
Leaders?, Cohn and Moran share the same insights and ideas they
use to help organizations make better choices. Revealing seven
essential attributes of all great leaders, they offer a fresh and
powerful evaluation technique anyone can use to assess leader
potential.
Through dynamic, first-hand accounts from the business world,
entertainment, sports, politics, education, and philanthropy, the
authors offer the ultimate insider access and reveal how top
organizations find and choose the best talent.
* Offers multiple ways to evaluate leaders, and how these 7
leadership attributes combine to create the best (and worst) in
leaders
* Features interviews with with Mike Krzyzewski, Coach, 2008 US
Men's Olympic Basketball team, Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon; George
Steinbrenner, Scott Davis, CEO of UPS; Peter Loscher, CEO of
Siemens; Toby Cosgrove, CEO, Cleveland Clinic; Hollywood movie
directors, and many others
* Includes academic study and field training at institutions such
as Harvard, Yale, INSEAD, and IMD for developing future
leaders.
Fresh and compelling, Why Are We Bad at Picking Good
Leaders? shows how great leaders can be spotted and why they
succeed - and is soon to the definitive resource guide for
about choosing better leaders.
