Summary

The business and self-help shelves may be overflowing with success books, but author Libby Gill has found a totally fresh perspective on the topic of leadership: hope.
"Libby Gill offers us a roadmap to be positive and hopeful for the future. This is a must-read for those of us ready to embrace true hope!" —Marshall Goldsmith, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Triggers
Zeroing in on what she sees as the defining issue of creating a more purposeful and productive workplace, Gill explains the science of hope theory, which is "the interconnection between beliefs and behaviors," and explores how it can shift mindsets from siloed to collaborative and productivity levels from sluggish to robust.
The Hope-Driven Leader is not about feel-good theory or loaded with dry data. It's an accessible, multi-step action guide informed by the thousands of people Gill has coached in both the corporate and entrepreneurial worlds around the globe. It includes skill-building lessons based on research and illustrated by personal stories and case studies such as:
• Enhancing leadership skills
• Crafting a personal brand
• Becoming an influencer
• Managing global teams
• Navigating high-impact conversations
• Handling challenges specific to women leaders
• And much more
Whether you are a rising star or a seasoned leader in your own business, a corporation, or your community, The Hope-Driven Leader offers you a roadmap for instilling those positive beliefs and behaviors into the core of your being and the culture of your workplace. Let the journey begin!
“This is your action guide to smarter leadership, more effective teams, and bigger, better, faster results. Smart, generous, and impactful. Buy a copy for everyone on your team.” —David Newman, CSP, author of Do It! Marketing

    "I have learned the truth about the world: that it isn’t as round as a tennis ball, and it isn’t shaped like itself. It is shaped the way we shape it, according to the way we see it, the way we mold it to our ambitions and our destiny. I know the color of who I am. I am a black man, running for my life, for my freedom, for opportunity born from struggle, possibility born from sacrifice. And I am running, too, for my father, who never became what he hoped to be, and who never got to see what his children would one day become." Maverick. Leadership genius. Self-made millionaire. Dragon.The rock star of public speaking. Vusi Thembekwayo has been called many things.

    “This is one of the most unique and valuable books you will read all year, and I highly recommend it.”—Jim Kouzes, coauthor of the bestselling and award-winning The Leadership Challenge and Dean's Executive Fellow of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara UniversityEven the best leaders—in fact, most of the best leaders—start out as decidedly bad ones. And sooner or later they reach a moment of reckoning that leadership expert Bill Treasurer calls the leadership kick in the ass. When it happens, it feels like it's all over. But Treasurer says that with the right attitude, that kick can be a new beginning. Based on his work with thousands of leaders, this book reveals how to turn those ego-bruising events into the kind of transformative experiences that mark the paths of great leaders. As Steve Jobs famously said, “Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.” This book is a survival guide, coach, and morale booster to help you use that kick to move forward instead of fall down. If you succeed, the next place you get kicked might be upstairs.

    Lead Right for Your Company's...

    From turf wars to low morale, most companies attempt to cure what ails them with the latest management fad--and fail. They are treating the symptoms while ignoring the true problem. 
     
    Success starts with knowing the kind of business you're really in. Lead Right for Your Company's Type argues that every enterprise falls into one of four categories as dictated by their customer promise: customized (e.g. ad agency), predictable and dependable (e.g utility company), benevolent (e.g. educational institution), and best in class (e.g. high-tech company like Apple). When leadership practices fit the customer promise and company type, the organization thrives. But apply the wrong practices and the mismatch pulls the enterprise apart. Example after example exposes the fallout: 
     
    A small arts college destabilized by top-down rules designed for a predictable and dependable company A mid-tier retail chain derailed by leadership demands for superior products instead of reliably low pricesA software giant brought to its knees by prioritizing profits over innovation 
    Insightful and practical, the book's proven tools and five-step process will help you diagnose your organization's ills--and stop them at their source.

    Do you dream of a future where you are rich, and you didn’t have to worry about money? 
    You cannot be rich, at least not with your job as a nurse. Everyone tells you this, and you have gradually come to believe that maybe getting wealthy has been preserved for people in other careers – with bigger paychecks. 
    It doesn’t help that there are no enough role models around you or even in the world to show you that it’s possible. 
    So, you have settled into the common lifestyle, living from paycheck to paycheck, and getting into debt to survive in between them, getting by, just like everyone else. 
    Does this sound like a place you are in? 
    If you have answered yes, then this book has been written to help you get out of that status quo that many of us get trapped in. 
    The fact that you are here means that you have a desire to do better, and you want to change the narrative. 
    Are you wondering… 
    How can I become rich, when all I have is my paycheck? 
    How can I save, when my paycheck is barely enough to cover my needs? 
    Can I handle investment while I work full time as a nurse? 
    How do I manage my money better? 
    How do I make my money work for me, so I don’t work for money my entire life? 
    If you have these and other related questions, I have the answers for you in this book. In my career as a nurse, I have faced circumstances that may be similar to yours. 
    I have made money mistakes common among us that landed me in a financial crisis that I was lucky to get through. During that period, I learned valuable lessons that imparted financial wisdom in me that I share with you.
