Leadership Lessons from a Dysfunctional Career & Upbringing
withMargaret Morford
Rarely, do you get to pick your bosses, peers or co-workers. Leaders rarely get to pick their team members, but are expected to develop them individually, engage them collectively and mold them into an effective, results-oriented group. You inherit the people in your organization, just like you do your family. Regardless, you have to work with them or minimally peacefully co-exist with them, just like your family. They are all different and what it takes to get things done when they’re involved in a project sometimes seems impossible. You will get several principles and real world strategies for handling these difficult situations so you get better outcomes and can increase bottom-line results. All of this is interspersed with funny, and not so funny, real-life stories and examples from Margaret's own life and career as well as the careers of other effective leaders.
