Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com Updated forth edition of the 1996 title (see ISBN 0965571203 for further information) Excellent resource | Customer Rating: | | This book was recommended to me by an HR director. It has been an excellent resource for developing others and even coaching myself on behaviors I need to improve on. The book is very well organized and has a wealth of information. | Amazing Guide for any Leader - Whether you already ARE one or want to be one. | Customer Rating: | | Amazing book that provides insight as to what the essential characteristics for leaders to achieve in order to be successful. It even goes into when a particular skill is overused by a leader and what skills to use to compensate for that. If you are one who is honest about your strengths and development needs, this is absolutely the book for you! I've had it since I attended a corporate retreat 10 years ago and have since bought the updated version a few years back. I've even provided a copy to my second level managers as a guide to improve themselves. Couldn't recommend it more. | Encyclopedia of Competencies | Customer Rating: | FYI presents a comprehensive list and description of competencies needed for leadership, according to the Lominger Group. This model may differ in some respects from the one used by your organization, but it won't be far off.
The competencies in this book are organized into six factors: Strategic Skills, Operating Skills, Courage, Energy & Drive, Organizational Positioning Skills, and Personal & Interpersonal Skills. The authors add the two negative factors Trouble With People and Trouble With Results. Nested within these factors are clusters and individual competencies. One might quibble with the details, but this map covers the terrain.
Readers are skillfully guided through this territory. The initial chapters provide solid advice for deciding which competencies to develop, recognizing that sometimes it is more useful to compensate for a weakness with other strengths and that it is possible to unproductively overuse one's strengths. The authors' willingness to deal seriously with negative issues such as overapplication of strong competencies and barriers to success is valuable--and often lacking in competency publications.
Individual competency chapters have a predictable and useful structure. Each chapter begins by locating the competency within its factor and cluster and "inspires" the reader with an appropriate quote. The reader encounters concise lists of the behavioral indicators of unskilled performance, skilled performance and overuse of this competency. These lists cross-reference other competencies that can either substitute for unskilled peformance or compensate for overuse. Then, following a list of some causes underlying poor performance, comes an extended discussion of several strategies for developing the competency and sources for further reading.
You can find the best competency chapter for your needs in under two minutes. This competency chapter can then be read and understood in under 10 minutes. Developing the competency will take longer, of course. But this book helps the reader diagnose and begin remediation with some confidence that the right disease is being treated--and treated effectively.
This book is worth having--and using. | Core title for anyone in supervision, 'Must-Have' for all HR personnel | Customer Rating: | If you want to advance your career, you must know how to professionally evaluate people, give & receive feedback, recognize talent, and compensate. These are titles HR personnel use to evaluate YOU, and YOU must learn these skills if you want to supervise people.
This is a CORE TITLE for any professional Manager which should also include FYI for Performance Management, Broadband Talent Management, Flawless Consulting, Successful Manager's Handbook, and The Science Behind Best People Practices. | Lominger is Best | Customer Rating: | | Lominger really does have the best leadership development system out there. I would never consider using anything else. |
