Reader reviews for Lead by Example: 50 Ways Great Leaders Inspire Results

From the publisher

Lead by Example reveals the simple things that you can do every day to give your team a reason to believe in and follow your guidance.

To be effective, the people in charge must give their team a reason to follow them and work together. It would seem easy, but as leadership guru John Baldoni explains, establishing this level of trust in your abilities as a leader takes a lifetime of trying to put it into practice.

In his award-winning book, you will learn how to do this by:

  • listening for ideas;
  • managing around obstacles;
  • defusing tension;
  • checking their egos;
  • standing up for what they believe in;
  • managing crises;
  • developing team confidence;
  • recruiting good people;
  • effectively delivering bad news;
  • handling defeat;
  • and even engaging their enemies.

Great leadership requires decisiveness, authority, conviction, compassion, and, most important, the ability to set the right example. Filled with examples of visionary leaders who have overcome their own shortcomings and achieved greatness, Lead by Example will show you how to build trust, drive results, and win the respect of the people you lead.

From the rear cover

Baldoni's insights are easy to understand and absolutely on target for the requirements of a modern-day leader." -- Jim Moore, former Chief Learning Officer, BellSouth, Nortel, and Sun Microsystems "John Baldoni has a distinct ability to peel away the complexities of leadership and deliver truly practical advice. His deeply useful ideas will resonate with managers at all organizational levels." -- Paul Michelman, Director of Content, Harvard Business Digital, Harvard Business Publishing "A new book by John Baldoni is an event, and this one may be the best of all. It's packed with content (principles and stories) written so that the lessons are incredibly easy to absorb and remember. It will be a classic." -- David Maister, preeminent authority on the management of professional service firms and author, First Among Equals and Trusted Advisor "Lead by Example takes a unique approach to leadership. While most books on leadership focus on the 'me' aspect of leadership--how can I be a great leader-- Lead by Example offers pragmatic, actionable advice that pinpoints the real power source of great leaders, namely the people that are inspired to 'follow' them. Lead by Example will quickly become a must read." -- Gary Beach, Publisher Emeritus, CIO Magazine "In a world plagued by headlines of leadership missteps, here's a book that speaks to how effective leaders are getting it right." -- Nick Nissley, Ed.D., Executive Director, The Banff Centre, Leadership Development, Banff, Canada
