Summary

What does it take to do more with less? How can you do better  than before, or better than others? How do you turn losses into  wins, or near-bankruptcy into strong profitability, or abject  failure into stellar success?  The power of uplift enables any organization to do more with  less, beat the competition, and perform better than ever. Leaders  who uplift their employees passions, intellects, and  commitments produce remarkable results.  Based on original research from a seven-year global study,  Uplifting Leadership reveals how leaders from diverse  organizations inspired and uplifted their teams performance.  Distilling the six common characteristics of leaders at  high-performing organizations across business, sports, and  education, authors Andy Hargreaves, Alan Boyle, and Alma Harris  explore the nature of uplift, its impact on performance, and the  ways to achieve it within and beyond an organizations walls,  revealing how leaders:    Identify and articulate an inspiring dream that is coherently  connected to the best of what the organization has been before  Pursue that dream at a sustainable pace without squandering  resources, incurring excessive debt, or burning people out  Forge paths of innovation and improvement that others have  overlooked or rejected  Monitor progress by using metrics and indicators in a mindful  and meaningful way  Build teams that naturally pull people into change rather than  pushing them through it      Featuring case studies of organizations as diverse as  Shoebuy.com, Fiat, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Marks & Spencer,  Cricket Australia, Burnley Football Club, and the Vancouver Giants,  as well as world-leading educational systems, Uplifting  Leadership provides tools for leaders to incorporate these  performance-driving strategies into their own.  For leaders who want their people to try harder, transform what  they do, reach for a higher purpose, and stay resolute and  resilient when opposing forces threaten to defeat them,  Uplifting Leadership provides a path to better performance  across any organization.
