While theory is rich in the many approaches purported to produce successful leadership, it is in the practical application that Dr. Shernette Grant (Dr. G) believes there are gaps. Unorthodox Leadership acknowledges a way of thinking and action necessary for all leaders and concentrate on three (3) areas of focus outlined in eight (8) strategies. These strategies are relevant to leaders in any industry for actualizing theory for everyday application. Though there are leaders who are innately gifted at exercising agile and unconventional thinking and action to achieve consistently successful results, there are those who must work actively and hard to do so. The strategies presented in this quick and easy read will help to level the playing field and provide leaders some strategies for bringing theory to life and increase consistently successful leadership across organizations.

What does it take to lead the successful turnaround of four consecutive organizations? What does it take to run a $5 billion business in Detroit as the city struggles to emerge from municipal bankruptcy and its worst ongoing crisis ever? What does it take to be a female CEO who has come up against discrimination and personal attack? It takes "Unconventional Leadership," a style of leadership based on confronting reality and leading headlong through adversity. In this inspiring story, innovative LGBT leader Nancy Schlichting, the CEO of Henry Ford Health System, reveals her unique strategies that drive success: maintaining a focus on people, creating a culture of innovation and reinvention, and embracing diversity as a key strategy for growth. The book describes a leadership paradigm that will motivate, inspire, and drive new thinking in today's disruptive business environment where traditional modes of managing are no longer working. In "Unconventional Leadership," Schlichting weaves together three themes that explain how she has become one of the most powerful individuals in healthcare today: (1) deftly conquering the immense challenges within the healthcare industry itselfconsolidation, new models of delivery and financing, increasing government regulation and oversight, changing customer expectations, and pressures on cost and quality (2) the exciting and panoramic backdrop of Henry Ford and DetroitFord s legacy of invention and innovation combined with ongoing attempts to restore and renew a city in deep decline; and (3) forging a career path and excelling as an LGBT and female CEO in a world typically dominated by men. An abiding fan of the underdog, Schlichting reveals, above all else, the sheer grit and determination required to lead through adversity and create a successful legacy of leadership."

Badaracco (business ethics, Harvard) observes that the most effective leaders are rarely public heroes or high-profile champions of causes. His study of "quiet leadership," carried out over four years, presents a series of stories describing quiet leaders at work and drawing practical lessons for executives and aspiring corporate leaders. The cases include a hospital CEO dealing with a case of sexual harassment; a bank president under pressure to remove underperforming but longtime employees; and a high-tech marketing rep who learned that his company was dumping obsolete equipment on its small customers.

For decades, politicians have numbed the American public with focus group-tested words and practiced platitudes—to the point that the American people can’t pin down politicians’ beliefs or even what party they belong to from decade to decade. Then Donald Trump came along. President Trump has a rhetorical style developed through a lifetime in the rough and tumble world of real estate development and entrepreneurship; he learned to communicate with people as partners and customers—that is, in a straightforward, unfiltered manner that resonates with people’s hearts as well as their minds. Unfiltered includes a comprehensive reprinting of many of the president’s most notable speeches and tweets, organized for easy reference and given proper context. This is an indispensable, contemporaneous resource for understanding the Trump presidency and its unique place in history.

"This is a brilliant account of how leadership is made." - Andy McNab This is the true story of 21 young men desperately trying to survive the most brutal leadership course of modern times. A throw back to the Highland Fieldcraft Training Center, the revolutionary brain child of Lord Rowallan during the Second World War, this fascinating insight explains the extraordinary lengths Sandhurst goes to in pursuit of generating the world’s greatest military leaders. No one could have known that the intensity of their training was coincidentally little more than a prelude to a decade of war in Afghanistan and Iraq where attrition rates became comparable to those reached during the Second World War. This captivating story is full of emotion brought on by physical and mental endeavor that leads to success and failure. This intimate and revealing story of camaraderie is the first of its kind. But learning how to lead subordinates during the darkest of hours, living in the most austere of environments comes at a price. Unconventional and at times controversial, this is the only authentic account of life in Rowallan Company Sandhurst at a time when the world teetered on the brink of war with insurgents and dictators armed with weapons of mass destruction.

Despite spending billions on leadership development each year, most companies still report a severe shortage of competent leaders within their ranks. Based on my personal experience and experience observing good and bad leaders around the world spanning more than three decades, I am becoming increasingly convinced that we may be looking for leadership advice in too narrow a space. The secret of great leadership may lie in the confluence of quantum mechanics, neuroscience, biology, and spirituality rather than just management and psychology books and training programs. Neuroscience research has shed light on how the brain's ability to adapt and change, known as neuroplasticity, can be harnessed through specific techniques. Likewise, certain principles of quantum physics suggest that reality can be altered through conscious observation. Leaders and managers can modify their thought patterns to enhance creativity and improve performance by cultivating heightened awareness, mindfulness, humility, and purpose.

The modern world needs managers who recognize that they act in a global market, where diversity is the norm. Too many corporate managers hide behind the rules and policies of the companies they work for in the name of political correctness, and opt for an "all-is-business" approach, which doesn't recognize that people are different. The key to ensuring team and business success is making the most of people's individual strengths. At times managers need to overlook the rules altogether and operate off-book. The Unorthodox Manager introduces a wide-ranging managerial approach that will arm readers with outside-the-box principles that enable "boots on the ground" managers to build their own best methods given any circumstances, rather than strictly following corporate policies. Through a rich professional history filled with an abundance of personal stories and lessons, Dan Clein shares the secrets of managing modern multicultural teams that get things done. The Unorthodox Manager is inspiration for Human Resource departments, encouraging them to work closely with front line managers across varying countries and environments, and build policies that reflect the realities of time, location, and culture. A modern approach that will help companies choose the right people for management positions; managers who care about their people and company's long term success over short-sighted business incentives.

Cities across the country rely on nonprofit organizations to provide quality services and effective campaigns that will benefit individuals, families, and communities. Reliable men and women are placed in leadership roles within these organizations, but are they prepared to lead? Dr. Troy Washington worked with and studied the leadership of Peacemaker Social Services under Gary Bellamy II, which provided him with insight into this unique line of work. With this in mind, Dr. Washington wrote Beyond the Boardroom: Examining the Concepts of an Effective Leader in a Culturally Conscious, Community-based Nonprofit Organization as a guide for anyone seeking leadership advice related to nonprofit organizations. From directors to team members, everyone makes up an important part of the overall organization. While there may not be a single definition of a leader, there are qualities that stand out among those with true leadership skills. Dr. Washington’s hope is that by inspiring leaders, they will use their roles to change the lives of those around them, for the better.
