From the rear cover
Look up the verb to hack in any contemporary dictionary and you're likely to find as many as ten or more definitions, including: "to break up the surface of the ground," "to alter a computer program by accessing its operating code," "to cope with or manage successfully," "to clear a path by cutting away brush, vines, and weeds," and "to create innovative customizations to existing or outdated methodologies." For the purposes of this book, all of the above apply.
The follow-up to Mike Myatt's internationally acclaimed Leadership Matters, Hacking Leadership is for leaders who feel that their performance falls short of their potential and who want to know why. It's for leaders who understand that in business today, the rule is adapt or die. And it's for anyone who wants to expand their leadership acumen, or for leaders interested in shaping a sustainable culture of leadership.
While much of what you discover within the pages of this book will be new to you, some will be very familiar. As Mike explains, core leadership principles have remained largely the same since the dawn of time. The trick is learning how to integrate those principles with evolving leadership practices engineered for twenty-first century success.
Enter Hacking Leadership. It delivers a proven approach to identifying your blind spots and closing leadership gaps. This book helps you gain a sharper perspective on your performance as a leader; learn to challenge your presuppositions about leadership and who you are as a leader; gain deep insights into your perceptual biases and self-imposed limitations; and totally reframe your thinking about what it means to be a leader.
But that's not all. With the help of in-depth case studies chronicling his work with leaders at many of the world's leading organizations, Mike identifies the eleven leadership gaps which can be fatal to your health as a leader. These include gaps in the key areas of leadership, purpose, future, mediocrity, culture, talent, knowledge, innovation, expectation, complexity, and failure.
More importantly, he arms you with actionable leadership and management hacks to bridge those gaps in order to create a true culture of leadership within your organization and drive record-breaking bottom-line and top-line business results.
Offering a bold new approach to leadership development and powerful tools for achieving your full potential as a leader, Hacking Leadership is must-reading for anyone who refuses to think of leader as merely a job title, but as their life's mission.
