About the Summary
Leadership goes beyond just ensuring your team completes a list of tasks or accomplishes a set of goals. Great leaders prioritize empathy and understand the value of putting people first. The book, In Their Shoes: Lessons on Corporate Leadership from a Former, Uninspired Employee urges us to explore the question, “Will I want to be treated the way I treat my subordinates?” Throughout the book, you explore different leadership styles, learn to lead by example, empower your team through transformation, extend support by thinking beyond yourself, and ultimately become the leader you wished you’d had.
In This Summary, You Will Learn:
- About Contingency, Situational, and Transformational leadership.
- How to cultivate trust and lead by example.
- How to encourage team participation through servant leadership.
- How to empower, motivate, and support your team.
