The Secret - What Great Leaders Know and Do

Ken Blanchard, Mark Miller

Maison d'édition: Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Synopsis

10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION, REVISED AND UPDATED

	In this new edition of their classic business fable, Ken Blanchard and Mark Miller get at the heart of what makes a leader successful. Newly promoted but struggling young executive Debbie Brewster asks her mentor the one question she desperately needs answered: “What is the secret of great leaders?” His reply—“great leaders serve”—flummoxes her, but over time he reveals the five fundamental ways that leaders succeed through service. Along the way she learns:

	

	•    Why great leaders seem preoccupied with the future

	•    How people on the team ultimately determine your success or failure

	•    What three arenas require continuous improvement

	•    Why true success in leadership has two essential components

	•    How to knowingly strengthen—or unwittingly destroy—leadership credibility

	

	The tenth anniversary edition includes a leadership self-assessment so readers can measure to what extent they lead by serving and where they can improve. The authors also have added answers to the most frequently asked questions about how to apply the SERVE model in the real world.

	

	As practical as it is uplifting, The Secret shares Blanchard’s and Miller’s wisdom about leadership in a form that anyone can easily understand and implement. This book will benefit not only those who read it but also the people who look to them for guidance and the organizations they serve.

Delivering Excellence: How to...

Dr. Jim Anderson

So why do we give speeches? I mean, talk about an effort! When you agree to give a speech all of a sudden you realize that you've signed yourself up to pick what you want to talk about, do whatever research is required, actually write the speech, and then spend a great deal of time practicing how you are going to say it. What's the purpose of all of this?

What You'll Find Inside:
PRESENTATION CHALLENGE: HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY TALK TO TEENS – AND SURVIVE!
WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU SAY THE WRONG THING DURING A PRESENTATION
D.O.A.: WHY PRESENTERS HATE BAD INTRODUCTIONS
HANDLING HECKLERS: 5 WAYS THAT PRESENTERS CAN RESTORE ORDER

It turns out that the purpose is actually quite simple – we want our next presentation to make a difference. No matter if we've agreed to talk with teens, if we've screwed up and said the wrong thing, or if we're not sure that our voice is up to giving a speech, we always want to make sure that our efforts are going to count for something.

Speeches are not easy to give. We have to struggle with getting bad introductions, make sure that we offend a few people as possible if we are giving toasts, and be aware of all of the nonverbal signals that we are sending to our audience.

Because speaking can be so hard to so, when we get a chance to watch a famous person speak, we need to seize the opportunity – it's like going to speech giving school. They'll teach us critical skills like how to handle hecklers and how to give an effective keynote speech.

It may not always seem this way, but as speakers we do have power. We need to learn how to tap into the power that we have and use it to deliver the best speech that we possibly can.
