Beskrivelse
THE IDIOT GUIDE TO SERVANT LEADERSHIP presents a novel approach to understanding and training leadership for top and middle management audiences. This guide is more than a book on teaching leadership to professional audiences in that it addresses the lay reader and shows how to raise leadership qualities in everyone's life. The author's approach is original in the sense that he has enriched and transformed the Western leadership paradigm through basic elements of Oriental wisdom, taken from Zen and the I Ching, thereby expanding the paradigm beyond the borders of the Western corporate culture, and adapting it for the corporate world in South-East Asia. The author claims that his leadership concept fits international culture better than a purely Western leadership concept, also because it meet the needs of an international lay audience that today increasingly consists of free-lancers from all around the world who are eager to build their own personal leadership style, thereby raising their chances of a professional career beyond their national borders.The 'Warrior of Peace' training contained in this guide is the author's original idea of which he wrote the first draft back in 1997; he further contends that since the Renaissance, the present guide is the first compendium of this kind, in that it offers a holistic approach to leadership and self-improvement. By the same token, the author claims his peak performance concept (Time and Peace) being an absolute novelty, going against all what is currently taught and trained in the coaching and championship industries, as it is based not upon principles developed in sport, but principles applied by sages, hierophants and Zen masters since times immemorial.The audience for this guide is both the corporate world, free-lancers from all over the world, and an interested lay public that has basic notions of what leadership does and what it is required for. The guide can be read by a young audience as well, and can safely be put in the hands of college students.SHORTENEDTHE IDIOT GUIDE TO SERVANT LEADERSHIP presents a novel approach to understanding and training leadership for top and middle management audiences.
