Here is a new 5 for Leadership as we stand between Christmas and the New Year. There are posts to help you prepare for 2015, how to be miserable as a leader, and the best leadership books of this past year. Take a few minutes and take a look.
The Best Leadership Books of 2014 “As leaders we must learn and grow. We must be creative and innovative in our organizations but perhaps more importantly, in working on ourselves. The context we lead in requires nothing short of radical personal development. All of the following titles cover an aspect of this need.” This comes from the Leading Blog and may open your eyes to some titles you missed.
70 New Years Resolutions for Leaders “With only about a week left of 2014, it’s time to select your New Year’s Resolutions for 2015. To get you started, how about selecting one or more of these 70 New Year’s resolutions for leaders?” This comes from Eric Jacobson and will get your thoughts flowing on what to change and improve for 2015.
Leaders As Curators “Your role as the day-to-day leader in an organization is to be the curator of content. You must bring other voices to speak to the issues your team needs to hear. You can’t say it all and they won’t listen to you all the time anyway.” See what else Jenni Cartron has to say about this unique perspective.
How To Be A Miserable Leader “Each morning, as soon as you awake, recite these few lines to be a miserable ministry leader:” That should get you going. This is a pithy, brief post–and worth your time–from Scott Couchenour.
10 Ways To Build Success in 2015 This last one comes from Dan Rockwell–need I say more? These leadership principles will also get your juices stirring for what you need to do in 2015.
There are the 5 for this week. Take some time in the next few days and prepare for the year ahead.
