Abstract:
Written by the scholars who first developed the theory of self-leadership, Self-Leadership: The Definitive Guide to Personal Excellence by Christopher P. Neck, Charles C. Manz, and Jeffery D. Houghton offers powerful yet practical advice for leading oneself to personal excellence. Grounded in the most recently published, cutting-edge self-leadership research, this milestone book is based on a simple yet revolutionary principle: first learn to lead yourself, and you will then be able to effectively lead others. This inclusive approach to self-motivation and self-influence equips readers with the strategies and tips they need to build a strong foundation in the study of management, as well as enhancing their own personal effectiveness. The updated Second Edition resonates with today’s students by featuring contemporary examples and showcasing a greater degree of diversity throughout. --From publisher's description.
