Summary

Most people don't understand what it takes to get ahead.   They don't understand what leadership means or how their  organizations make leadership decisions. As a result, they  feel lost. A sense of frustration creeps into their careers,  communities and personal ambitions. This new book from two of  the top names in leadership and succession planning will help those  who struggle with understanding  "leadership." Through Cohn   courage, and vision. While many top managers and aspiring  executives excel in one or several of these areas, great, lasting  leaders have an integrated approach to all. Why Are We Bad  At Picking Good Leaders? incorporates exciting, first-hand  stories taken from the real leadership challenges of some of  today's most recognizable names: people like Duke basketball coach  Mike Krzyzewski, Bono's RED campaign, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos,  Hollywood director Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland), and dozens  more. Their stories bring the attributes to life and  will help readers understand what words like "empathy" or  "authenticity" or "passion" mean in the context of effective  leadership.  These stories are original accounts gathered by  the authors especially for this book.    The overall result is an entertaining read that explains leadership  in a fresh and original way, one that offers the unique, insider  access to closed conference rooms in top corporations; the  thoughtful knowledge of the world's top academics and thought  leaders, and the entertining stories of celebrities from all areas  of business, sports, and entertainment. This is a comprehensive  look, at how to find, create, and regonize great leaders,  where all essential attributes of great leaders are explained in  one book.
