Rarely does a day go by that we aren’t bombarded with media accounts of high profile, toxic leaders.  From bully behaviors including sexual harassment offenses that have harmed countless individuals all the way to the demise of once “high flying” corporations, the ripple effect of bad bosses seems to be at an all-time high.

Wesley Middleton, Author, Violent Leadership: Be a Force for Change. Disrupt. Innovate. Energize

Traditionally, an effective leader was seen as someone equipped with a variety of skills essential for them to grow a business. This notion has remained a part of our belief for a long time, and because of this notion, we expect leaders to be experts at everything. However, this expectation brings massive pressure and is now seen as ineffective by many. While becoming a leader entails work that grows a business, it should not include the leader being responsible for every task.

It has been two years since I wrote my book Ingaging Leadership: 23 Steps to Elevate Your Business. Since then, a number of business leaders have told me they have been applying Ingaged Leadership, and achieving success and good results.

It is a great compliment for me to hear that my ideas are helping people become better leaders. Yet for me, the real excitement comes from knowing that my philosophy is helping organizations perform better. I am a great believer in the tonic of success, because when people work for successful organizations, they have much better lives. If I have played even a small role in making that happen, I am proud.

Kathy Palokoff, Raoul Davis Jr., and Dr. Paul Eder, Authors, Firestarters: How Innovators, Instigators, and Initiators Can Inspire You to Ignite Your Own Life

How can you ignite, fuel, and accelerate both yourself and your organization? What drives “Firestarters” -- people who create new things, disrupt conventional thinking, and start successful businesses, non-profits, and movements? We chose the Firestarter analogy in order to go beyond the business definition of entrepreneurs and capture the actions of ordinary people who light up the world by doing extraordinary things.

CrisMarie Campbell & Susan Clarke, Authors, The Beauty of Conflict: Harnessing Your Team’s Competitive Advantage

Let’s begin by acknowledging an undisputable truth: Change is difficult. For everybody. Plus, it’s often unsuccessful. In fact, a survey done by the Economist Intelligence Unit uncovered that the failure rate for change is about 44%. That’s a lot of wasted time, energy, and money.

Don’t wind up in the 44%. As a leader, make your company’s change successful.
