The Leadership Spectrum: 6 Business Priorities That Get Results Mary Burner Lippitt
 Description and Reviews From The Publisher: For every leader who wants to make better decisions, get team buy-in, achieve faster acceptance and smoother execution, maintain clearer communication, and build mutual respect, THE LEADERSHIP SPECTRUM is the proven framework for success in the tumult of business change. To achieve the right results at the right time, leaders must exercise flexibility in the face of chaos and complexity, according to leadership researcher, consultant, and author Dr. Mary Burner Lippitt. Flexible leaders who are willing to explain the business reasons that support organizational refocusing will find they have a supportive team to consistently sustain their results--and their bottom line. By examining a situation through differing perspectives and priorities, leaders and teams can zero in on priorities appropriate for each particular organizational life cycle. Understanding the six priorities is key to shifting gears when a project or enterprise is out of balance. These priorities are: developing new products or services (Inventor), winning and retaining customers (Catalyst), designing a supportive infrastructure and systems (Developer), focusing on efficiencies and improving quality (Performer), building the culture and developing people (Protector), and scanning the future and seizing opportunities (Challenger). Detailing the whole cycle, Lippitt's unique Leadership Spectrum framework illustrates where each priority fits, what issues are key, and how strengths can be enhanced and blind spots overcome. Warren H. Schmidt, Chairman of the World Heritage Foundation, wrote the Foreword, and in it, says that Lippitt's book "combines a fresh perspective with solid research and an understanding of practical organizational problems, presents a clear framework for thinking about organizational problems without prescribing simple solutions, and will be helpful to managers who want to take a fresh look at their organization, their concerns, and their management practices."
