Lead Like a Black Belt: Transform Your Leadership Style - Paperback

by Scott Alexander (Author)

Watching a great leader is awesome to behold. Principles, ideals, and strategy are the primary fodder for discussion. The right decisions are made by the right people at the right time. Mistakes are treated as learning opportunities for everyone. Success is shared by all. There is connection and commitment, a sense of being a part of a larger whole. There is ownership. The leader seems to know just what to say (or not say) at the exact right time. But what does it take to be a great leader? How do you know when you've gotten there? Drawing on his experiences over the past thirty years as a karate student, Master Instructor and CEO/COO, Scott Alexander reveals the secrets to sustained successful leadership. This book gives you the tools you need to be a great leader and challenges you to push yourself toward increasingly greater impact.
