The corporate world is changing...and changing fast. It's not just the organization and business that's changing, it's also the behavior of people, and the challenges that come with leading people. I talk with the author of 'Leading the Unleadable: How to Manage Mavericks, Cynics, Divas, and other Difficult People', Alan Willett. We talk about: 1. Leadership pressures and challenges, 2. Measuring successful leadership (outside of the usual 'bottom line'), 3. Why leaders need to 'Stop Whining', 4. Keeping commitments, 5. Developing a 'radar for trouble', 6. Spotting potential difficult situations and what to do about them, 7. Becoming an exceptional leader, 8. The Need for Mountains, 9. Creating goals and communicating them, 10. Accepting that sometimes you need to 'restart', It's clear listening to Alan that he is passionate about leadership - it shows! Listen in to Alan's insights and become a stronger leader - able to lead the unleadable. Enjoy!
