Leadership Style
What is your leadership style? Do you lead with a "laissez-faire" attitude or with a micromanagement approach? Regardless of your leadership style, you can improve it with
Crucial Conversations®.
A Leadership Style of 100% Honesty and 100% Respect
As a leader, you will be most effective when you communicate with 100% honesty. Most leaders however, find themselves trying to communicate with less honesty for fear of offending others. While this may seem like a reasonable strategy, when honesty "suffers," valuable information is actually withheld and the real crucial issues are not resolved.
Still, you are concerned that if you decide to be honest and communicate all necessary information then your listener will become offended and your relationship will probably suffer, right?
Not necessarily. The New York Times bestseller,
Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking when Stakes are High can help you implement complete honesty and complete respect during your most crucial conversations.
