Compass is ideal for leaders and managers looking to develop competency in themselves and others.
A vital guide for training and development professionals — both inside an organization and external consultants — Compass is both a coaching tool and a blueprint for leader development plans.
What experts are saying:
“You’ll want a copy of Compass! The authors have done a brilliant job of combining a ‘self-help’ book for leaders with a guide for professionals who are in the business of developing leaders. As a leader, the book is like having your own personal coach with its wealth of insights, self-reflective questions and useful online tools. As an Industrial/Organizational psychologist, I appreciate the years of research that underpin the ideas and the potential to apply the many resources for executive leadership programs I develop and deliver.”
— Vicki L. Flaherty, Ph.D., IBM Executive Leadership Development
“Leadership is navigation — lots of choices, hazards, and currents. The future will require great clarity of direction, but great flexibility of execution. You will need this Compass to find and hold your clarity.”
— Bob Johansen, Distinguished Fellow, Institute for the Future and author of The New Leadership Literacies
