One of the biggest challenges for managers is to inspire and motivate employees during times of large-scale mergers, layoffs, and other global uncertainties. Leadership When the Heat's On presents... This description may be from another edition of this product.
"Leadership When the Heat's On" is a soon-to-be classic that truly has it's finger on the pulse of business in the 21st century. Mr. Cox accurately delivers a powerful curriculum that not only creates a road map for new leaders but allows veteran leaders to expand and extrapolate on their own time-tested techniques. Not only has my company used this book to address immediate, critical needs but instituted many of Mr. Cox's principles into the bedrock of our strategic planning foundation. I look forward to future publications as I am sure the "sonic boom" will ripple through the business landscape.
Cox and Hoover HOT HOT HOT!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Dream. Study. Plan. Act. Danny Cox and John Hoover epitomized leadership in these four simple words. This book is a no nonsense look at simple values that we have left behind in the pursuit of great leadership. The authors focus on bringing out the leader in everyone so that everyone can lead themselves and others with enthusiasm. It is an easy read with exercises to challenge readers to think about how to improve their way of thinking and living so as to tap into their leadership skills. The book reads somewhat like a manual and at times can be repetitive but in it's repetition, readers remember. I think the best characteristic of this book is the lists of things to remember, including catchy phrases, relevent stories, and rules to live by. Leadership When the Heat is On is not only informative but fun. It can be used as a guide to beef up leadership skills but more importantly change the way you view leaders and the people who follow them.

I've given several copies as "gifts" (as people who have requested to borrow the book never returned it). A must have resource to keep sanity in an ever-changing world.

We liked "Leadership When the Heat is On" so much that we use it as a resource for our corporate leadership in-house training. Concise and well-written, the author uses his own life experiences, as well as the experiences of other great individuals, to aid the reader in reaching his true potential. "Leadership When the Heat is On" is full of self-discovery and those "aha" moments where the reader gains greater personal insight. The book is a primer for future leaders, especially those in fast-paced or results oriented organizations. Highly recommended and a "must read" for future leaders and leaders wishing to hone their motivational and leadership skills.
