Excellent guidance to help you develop your leadership skills
Leadership is a scarce and highly valued resource. The Six-Step Leadership Challenge guides you through the process of aligning vision, strategy and tactics to drive success. With examples and stories from real-life engagements, James gives you benefit of his years of experience. The Six-Step Leadership Challenge offers provocative ways that allow you assess and develop actions to grow into the leader you aspire to be.
This book has a great leadership model designed to help you, the leader grow. I’m working the process with my team, and what I like the best about this is the 30/60/90 day action plans. It’s a fast read, so you have time to reread and really dig in on what matters most to you. My advice? Be honest with yourself on the questions and self assessment. Thanks James, we needed this.
Jim creates an easy-to-follow methodology that will improve the performance of every executive out there. The book is written in a conversational tone, with many examples, illustrations, and templates, and is ready for implementation from the get-go. As a senior expert advisor to many CEOs, C-Suites and boards, I would highly recommend this book to every executive or anyone striving to become one.
A lot of leadership books are full of ideas but fall down when it comes to the practical aspects. What does it take to really make a shift? How do you hold yourself accountable? What are the hidden ways that we sabotage ourselves? This book is full of not only great ideas and many anecdotal examples. It also provides a framework and concrete structure for stepping into the next level of leadership.
A Clear and Actionable Guide to Success
This is not your typical self-improvement book. From the very first pages, Jim Saliba establishes a clear and actionable roadmap for leadership growth. Whether you're looking to rise in your organization or get more out of your team, engaging and approachable exercises throughout this book will give you the tools you need to accomplish your goals. This is a must read for aspiring leaders at all stages of their careers.
Actionable advice for aspiring leaders
Perhaps one of leadership's most overlooked but crucial aspects is to have a deliberate, sequenced approach to self-improvement. The Leadership Challenge framework offers just that with proven methods and actionable new ideas for anyone who aspires to be a better leader. Using business approaches to structure self-improvement is an unlock, and, in particular, I greatly appreciated using a cadence of accountability for oneself to drive outcomes.
Experience based application of leadership development
In this book, Jim sees through common leadership fables and sets forth a process to overcome mediocrity that resonated deeply with me. I especially appreciate the recurring focus on learning through experimentation, which enables diverse personal outcomes through the application of Jim’s process. Definitely worth the read!
Practical and actionable information
This book contains a good balance of information, practical examples and actionable steps. It is easy to read and not only leaders, anyone can use this information to advance their career.
Brilliant! Highly recommended for anyone who aspires to a leadership role
I wish I had this book earlier in my career! In Chapter 5, the author writes, “Leadership is about vision, and there is no place better to start than creating your vision.” In retrospect, I now realize that my personal vision was always cloudy – join a startup, get stock options, hope to make millions of dollars, etc. Basically, a vision of a large and sudden step function increase in wealth. And my career path consisted of opportunities I stumbled upon.
This book takes a much different, thought-out and disciplined approach! It is an approach where you create an initial vision and consistently review and course correct as you go, modifying the vision based on what you learn. Simple, easy to understand and combined with a process that anyone can follow. Brilliant! Highly recommended for anyone who aspires to a leadership role and take career growth seriously.
Holistic approach with a methodical approach to developing leadership capabilities
Jim has created a methodical approach to developing your leadership capacity that works on each skill independently and iteratively, and then brings those pieces together into a holistic leadership style. If you practice the exercises, you will be challenged to become a leader that can align a team to create great value together.
