Lead True by Jeff Thompson
HOW A TRUE LEADER PUTS PEOPLE, ORGANIZATION, AND COMUNITY FIRST We all face countless decisions throughout our careers. The specific circumstances that call us to lead will be different, but the core dilemmas and ethical challenges are very similar. Faced with these challenges, each of us must decide if we will follow our ego-centered inclinations or lead for the good of everyone whose lives we touch? Will we endanger or impair those around us to satisfy our own self-interest, or will we lead in a manner that is true to our values? In his inspiring book LEAD TRUE, Jeff Thompson, MD, has masterfully compiled stories from the business, healthcare, and education fields, illustrating how a diverse group of leaders has employed values-based leadership and succeeded. These case studies offer dynamic, living narratives that demonstrate ways in which a leader, fueled by personal values, can change people, organizations, and even entire industries. What sets this book apart is the interweaving of the author's personal leadership story in healthcare to the insights from start-ups, mid-career, and top-level leaders--people who have proven that values-driven leadership is not simply a noble idea but one that actually works in practice. The author artfully shows that the goal of leadership is not to move one individual ahead of all others. When you lead true, you can move everyone forward--people, organizations, and communities--finding the best route for all.
