Precise:
Positive Leadership starts at the beginning, providing you with a clear and useful definition of leadership. Most leaders have a foggy notion of what it means to lead and this has led to a condition some call a “leadership crisis.”
Fresh:
Most leadership approaches are based on an “authority” model—in order to be a leader you must be in a position of authority. Positive Leadership does not consider leadership to be a position. Instead, it is the deliberate and skillful use of leadership capacities in any moment you choose to access them. Leadership is a moment of conscious commitment to effect change regardless of your position or status.
Timeless:
Positive Leadership is based on enduring principles. It does not focus on fads, tricks or techniques.
Meaningful:
Positive Leadership is relevant in all areas of life (business, non-profit, government, education, family, etc.)—not just in corporations. It is a personal journey to discover your strengths, virtues and passions and connect them to what you do.
Cutting-Edge:
Positive Leadership is consistent with the philosophies of Positive Psychology and Positive Organizational Scholarship—two powerful movements that are shaping the way we understand people and organizations.
