Description

This book dissects the process of transformational leadership and gives managers specific ideas for transforming their own companies. The book breaks down transformation into a "Three Act" process - how to identify where change is needed, how to develop a long-range vision of what should be done, and how to translate that vision into action. Interviews with executives at various stages of transformation - from those working to revitalize struggling companies to those seeking to anticipate new markets from a position of strength - give managers insights into the obstacles they can expect and how successful transformational leaders overcome them.
