Lead Positive - What Highly...

Kathryn D. Cramer

Why do so many leaders fail?Leadership development expert Kathy  Cramer believes an over-reliance on operational and strategic  skillsplanning, organizing, and developing  strategiesis behind the failure of so many high potential  leaders. These skills are necessary, but alone do not inspire. To  drive outstanding performance and inspire others to follow, one  must develop a personal magnetic power to communicate in ways that  move people to action  Lead Positive takes the fundamentals of  Asset-Based Thinking (ABT), pioneered by Cramer and first revealed  in her bestseller Change the Way You See Everything, and  turns them into a playbook for successful leadership.  ABT is  a simple mindset management process that shows people how to make  small shifts in perception and thinking to achieve great results.  Cramer shows leaders how to apply ABT to shift their  attention away from what is negative and learn to intentionally  shine the spotlight on the positive, beneficial facts of a  situation.  As they make this mental shift from negative to  positive aspects, they improve their optimism, empathy, and  confidence. When their mindset zooms in on what is strong,  valuable, and possible, what they say and do is far more likely to  inspire others to action. In short, ABT helps leaders shift  internally so they can excel externally. It teaches  them how to change how they:                     SEE: Leaders learn how to shift their  perspective from the negative side of the ledger to the positive  side.                      SAY: Leaders learn how to connect what they  say to the positive evidence they see so they can  create magnetic, high-impact communication.                      DO: Informed by what they see and say,  leaders learn the behaviors that will work best to inspiring action  in others.                     Written for anyone ready to update their capacity to lead and to  engage others, Lead Positive weaves findings in neuroscience  and positive psychology with case studies of exemplary leaders to  make effective leadership strategies come alive.
