Flexible Leadership: Navigate Uncertainty and Lead with Confidence by Kevin Eikenberry
Become a more flexible leader with a revolutionary approach to applying leadership skills—while remaining steadfast in proven principles and your values.
To succeed in a landscape more unpredictable than ever, leaders need a new perspective and a brand-new set of skills centered around what is missing in the models and existing tools: flexibility.
Kevin Eikenberry, Chief Potential Officer of the Kevin Eikenberry Group, a leadership consulting company centered on a philosophy of lifelong learning, explains how to effectively harness flexibility in this guide for leaders at all levels.
Outlining a new toolkit for those frustrated with their current effectiveness and confidence, Flexible Leadership teaches readers to:
Become more situationally flexible and effective every day without compromising values or principles
Understand the danger of using existing models to define (and therefore limit) leadership effectiveness
Use the Flexible Leadership Approach, including the practical Flexor spectrum framework, to make wise decisions based on context—not on automatic responses
Create an organization of flexible leaders and change the lives of others for the better
The flexible leader has a clear mindset and increased confidence knowing that they can respond to a variety of situations with greater success, instead of being overly reliant on restrictive and complicated tools that can get in the way. Flexible Leadership is every leader’s guide to greater success in a world of increasing complexity and chaos.
