Book Description
Are you ready to lead your team with confidence, empathy, and peace of mind? The CEO's Compass helps you systematically identify your team's current blindspots and determine seven key areas you need to focus on to get back on track in days - not months. A recent study showed nearly 60% of leaders feel depleted at the end of day. This feeling is a key indicator of burnout and makes it difficult to lead and inspire others. If you've ever experienced that restless exhaustion, you know why CEOs are among the most likely candidates for experiencing job frustration and burnout. The CEO's Compass is your guide to confronting these feelings and creating a plan that is sustainable for you and your organization. Deborah A. Coviello has spent decades utilizing her skills as an engineer and STEM professional to assess and solve problems in the flavors and fragrance industries. Deborah climbed the ranks of several organizations, transforming people and production processes alike. It was in one of those leadership roles she realized that the same process used to master Quality and Operational Excellence on the production floor could be transferred into the boardroom, helping C-Suite leaders put the right people in the right roles for optimal performance. It was that same process that inspired The CEO's Compass, and now she's sharing it with you. In this book you will find: ●The real reason you're feeling off track... and no, it has nothing to do with your expertise! ●A seven-point assessment you can use to find the problem in days...not months! ●Actionable steps to complete your assessment with worksheets, videos, and more ●Real-world examples of how this process has transformed organizations from production lines to leadership teams ●Why your peace of mind is critical for the success of you and your organization It's time to change the way you think about leadership, starting with the way you assess your team. Let's get back on track together.

Book Description
Strategy is vital to effective and efficient public service delivery as well as successful governance and leadership. This new text provides a concise yet systematic overview of the achievements, downfalls and complexities of public strategy in today's globalized and often market-driven world. It describes the place of strategy in civic societies whose citizens are more interconnected and vocal than ever. It shows that successful strategic planning goes well beyond problem-solving to developing adaptable plans that can evolve as requirements and circumstances change. And it explains why muddling through simply won't work. Emphasizing the importance of applying a variety of techniques to the process of strategy-creation, Rethinking Public Strategy reassesses the key factors that can deliver significant improvements in public services and build public value. It looks at why public strategy is distinctive, as well as the principles it has in common with the corporate domain. This text includes numerous case studies from around the globe – from South Africa to Singapore, the USA to Germany, and from China to the Czech Republic – that ground the exposition in real experience. Based on state-of-the-art research by two expert practitioners in the field, it offers an essential guide to the art of strategy in the contemporary public sector, and encourages readers to evaluate critically the various approaches to strategy.

Book Description
A dynamic new way to understand intuition, already implemented around the world at top companies and business schools Neuroscience shows that instinct has a leading role in complex decision-making, yet imaginative play is the most direct means of activating our creativity and problem-solving abilities.

Through a concept known as Intuitive Intelligence, Cholle shows how anyone can improve creative brainpower by harnessing the balance between reason and instinct.
