Summary

Jami Ann Lough worked for twenty-five years for the city of Boise, ID, where she closely observed both effective and ineffective leadership approaches. In this book, she includes insights about effective leadership/management from both her own experience and, it appears, from the wisdom of a variety of key organizational leaders whose insights are contained in the literature on the subject.   

Included in the book are: 4 key strategies to build trust and credibility as a new manager; insights on identifying and leveraging one’s personal leadership style; perspectives on leading with empathy and understanding, not just authority; four essential techniques for building stronger relationships; and steps to succeed in leadership when encountering change and uncertainty. 

The book is exceptionally well organized – each chapter is developed around central points, clearly stated, and includes innumerable bullet-points. It could well be used as an outline for teaching organizational leadership.
