In the second edition of the bestselling Becoming a Strategic Leader, Richard L. Hughes, Katherine Colarelli Beatty, and David L. Dinwoodie, from the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL®), offer executives and managers a handbook for implementing a strategic leadership process that reaches leaders at all levels of organizations.
This thoroughly revised and updated edition contains a wealth of strategies for enhancing an individual manager’s ability to exercise effective strategic leadership by providing a distinctive and systematic approach. This effective approach has been used with great success in the Center’s Leading Strategically Program. The new edition reinforces the program’s targeted lessons and practices.
Included are fresh suggestions on how to develop the individual, team, and organizational skills needed for institutions to become more adaptable, flexible, and resilient. The authors also address timely topics such as the increased pace of change, dealing with greater uncertainty, and the influence of the global marketplace.
