This IT Download is an excerpt from Chapter 2 of the book.
You'll first discover how to use the authors' Purpose Alignment Model to make better
up-front decisions about where to invest limited resources–and how to filter out
activities that don't drive market leadership. Next, you'll learn how to collaborate in
new ways that unleash your organization's full talents for innovation. The authors
offer the Context Leadership Model for understanding the unique challenges of any
project, and they help you tailor your leadership approach to address them. You'll find
a full chapter on organizing information to promote more effective, value-driven
decision-making. Finally, drawing on decades of experience working with great leaders,
the authors focus on a critical issue you'll face over and over again: knowing when to
step up and lead, and when to stand back and let your team produce results. This
excerpt is from Chapter 2 of the book.
