In The Synergy of One, author Michael Dreikorn argues that the vast majority of errors and system failures are the result of ineffective leadership. Most of the shortcomings of leadership stem from the lack of a unified and structured system throughout their organization. The Synergy of One explains how to create an integrated system that incorporates resources, accountability, culture, understanding, and leadership into one synergistic formula that will help drive consistent success. This synergistic system will help lead to consistency throughout the organization – leader to leader and department to department - which will lead to better communication, greater reliability, and ultimately more success.

Dreikorn introduces the concept of Integrated Performance Leadership (IPL), which combines various academic theories of management, performance and leadership into one single stream of thought. By using IPL as described in The Synergy of One, organizational leaders will discover how to more effectively implement change by remaining aware of the big picture and how it affects the entire organization. Dreikorn cites examples from successful organizations, and provides numerous charts and graphs to help emphasize the points being made.
