Abstract:
Recognizing the good advice our fathers gave us is one of the greatest learning experiences leaders can have. Leadership Lessons from Dad was written to help leaders today use some of Dad's wisdom and apply it in the workplace. These valuable lessons will serve as the foundation of your development as a leader. They also will help you guide employees and your organization to be better prepared for the challenges ahead. The book contains 21 ageless lessons that typically take many years to learn and apply to virtually any situation you will face, for example: being honest; acting with integrity: working hard; standing up for yourself; following the rules; taking care of your family; being determined in spite of obstacles: learning from the school of hard knocks; Each lesson is covered in a separate section and includes an inspirational summary statement and leadership tips, such as: be a role model when it comes to values and principles; make sure that employees understand their responsibilities; the more you listen to others, the more they will ultimately listen to you; don't say things you may not be able to honor; show your vision for overcoming any adversity or setbacks your organization may be presently experiencing.
