The International Award winning Innovative Leadership Fieldbook and workbook series create an integrated system of leadership develop from college student through executive. They are leading texts for executives, managers, and individual contributors providing a combination of well-researched theory with practical business case studies. Each workbook was written in conjunction with experts in their fields.
In the foundation book, Innovative Leadership Fieldbook, the authors Maureen Metcalf and Mark Palmer along with contributing author Belinda Gore define leadership from a thoughtful, new perspective and provide six-step process for developing strong leadership qualities.
We differentiate these books from other authors by our approach to leadership. We work with the pioneering theoretical work of Senge, Wilber, Drucker, Collins, O’Fallon, Cook-Grueter, Ritchie-Dunham and Kotter in the field of leadership development, integral theory, and organizational transformation and translate their evidence based research into practical tools that are easy to apply. The authors test the workbooks in our own organization and with MBA students, before using with you. This approach helps you become more effective and often provides a strategic and competitive advantage.
“Leadership needs innovation the way innovation demands leadership, and by combining them you can improve your capacity to deliver results,” as explained in this book.
An innovative leader is defined as someone who consistently delivers results using the following:
- Strategic leadership that inspires individual goals and organizations vision and cultures;
- Tactical leadership that influences an individual’s actions and the organizations systems.
- Holistic Leadership that aligns all key dimensions: Individual, culture, action and systems.
The fieldbook and workbooks are each divided into two sections, defining innovative leadership and providing a process, worksheets and reflection questions that support your journey in innovating how you lead. The books skillfully weave the journeys of executive leaders, a nonprofit CEO, middle managers, and individual contributors on their paths of developing innovative leadership qualities and behaviors as well as implementing change in their organizations. These leaders encounter their own unique challenges, organizational cultures and outcomes which provide invaluable insight into developing innovative leaders.
