5-D Leadership debunks the myth that there is only one right way to be an effective leader. Campbell and Samiec identify the five key Leadership Dimensions the most successful leaders use to master today’s complex business challenges.
Using real-world examples—from Harley-Davidson to Nestlé, Rudy Giuliani to Shackleton’s Antarctic expedition—they demonstrate that lasting leadership effectiveness requires the ability to shift between these five leadership approaches.
5-D Leadership delivers a dynamic process that helps current and aspiring leaders employ all five Leadership Dimensions. Offering a wealth of self-assessment and planning tools, Campbell and Samiec guide leaders to identify and leverage the strengths they already possess, challenging the conventional wisdom that demoralizes so many individuals with its emphasis on overcoming weaknesses.
By following the authors’ recommendations, leaders will better achieve their desired objectives while avoiding the damage inflicted by relying on a one-dimensional leadership style.
