Summary of Ken Blanchard & Randy Conley's Simple Truths of Leadership

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Servant leadership is the process of helping your employees accomplish goals. It is all about a leader’s character and intention. A misguided heart will color their thinking, impact their behavior, and cause them to begin every day by asking What’s in it for me today. #2 The two parts of servant leadership are the leadership aspect, which focuses on vision, direction, and results, and the servant aspect, which focuses on working side by side with your people. #3 Servant leadership is about creating both great results and great relationships. It is about setting the vision and direction with your employees’ help, but not serving them. #4 A compelling vision is made up of three elements: your purpose, your picture of the future, and your values. A compelling vision is alive and well in companies that are leaders in their field, such as Disney, Southwest Airlines, Nordstrom, Wegmans, and Starbucks.
