This book focuses on how organizations of all types can create a leader development system that defines critical leader behaviors, gives simple techniques for building and improving the skills that drive those behaviors, and gives a mechanism for monitoring and enforcing those behaviors. It spells out how leaders can do the same for their employees; defining and promoting behaviors required for sustaining continuous change. The book synthesizes current research on change, servant leadership, group and team dynamics, job satisfaction, intrinsic motivation, psychological flow, and individual self-efficacy.
