A: Here are my nine “go to” resources.
Peter Drucker
- Management Challenges for the 21st Century
- The Effective Executive
- Managing in Turbulent Times
Nicholas Webb
- Breakers: Leading by Destruction in the Innovation Economy
John P. Kotter
- Leading Change
Daryl R. Conner
- Managing at the Speed of Change
David Cottrell
- Monday Morning Leadership: 8 Mentoring Sessions You Can't Afford to Miss
Michael Watkins
- The First 90 Days: Proven Strategies for Getting Up to Speed Faster and Smarter
Marshall Goldsmith
- What Got You Here Won't Get You There
All have a couple of common themes, beginning with change. What I like about all of these resources is they all go beyond analysis and encouragement to actual application. While visionary guides can be inspirational, toolkits are much more practical in equipping executives to lead (not manage) change.
