Soft Skills for Strong Leaders by Helen Isacke

Soft Skills for Strong Leaders by Helen Isacke

A must-read for anyone aspiring to be a true leader in the workplace. The thought-provoking ideas about an honest and transparent management style in 'Soft Skills for Strong Leaders' reminds us that successful management and leadership is just as much about 'who you are' as 'what you know'. Mike Clare, Founder of Dreams I wish this book had been out when I moved up into my first management and leadership roles. It's like a fast track to all things you usually find out and realise later in your career. Liz Arkell, Employee Engagement Consultant 'Soft Skills for Strong Leaders' gets straight to the point and works well as an ongoing reference which enables you to dip in and out of the book to gain advice when the need arises. David Yeabsley, Leadership Trainer, The People Animators Your first management role can be a lonely and daunting place. When you are good at what you do, the natural reward is promotion, and so having once been part of the team, you are now in charge of it. A new skill-set is required to manage and lead. You now need the ability to influence and engage others, and to deliver results through them. It is the lack of these soft skills, and the lack of emotional intelligence that can de-rail the most technically knowledgeable leader. The good news is that you can learn these skills, through raising your self-awareness, and being more aware of those around you. This book takes you on a personal journey of discovery, as you prepare for leadership, embark on your first 100 days, and learn strategies to tackle the day-to-day challenges of leadership.
