"Mike takes a fresh perspective on the topic of leadership. A must read for aspiring and seasoned leaders alike, and a welcomed addition to anyone's leadership library." Mike Garner, a former Infantry officer and leadership instructor at West Point.
This book is written for the new manager or anyone who aspires to become a leader. Whether you have just finished school or have been working for some time, you are in (or about to assume) your first real leadership position. Leadership in Balance will help you to see and understand your natural tendency in each of four essential leadership domains. Once you've identified your true and natural tendencies, you become self- aware of your default position as a leader. Armed with that knowledge, and as you become situationally aware of your team and the environment, you will learn to see when the situation demands a shift in order to find balance between you and the environment where you lead. Understanding the concepts of Leadership in Balance will allow leaders at all levels to become immediately more effective and infinitely more productive.
