The Leadership Paradox
The Leadership Paradox: What Extraordinary Leaders Do When the Strategy That Built Everything Stops Working
You were promoted for being the most capable person in the room. Now everything runs through you. The hours keep going up and the returns keep going down. Nobody handed you a new identity along with the title.
Chandell Labbozzetta has spent more than twenty years helping leaders move from survival to stewardship. Then the map she had drawn for hundreds of them turned out to describe her own life. She went through every stage of it herself before she wrote a word. This book tells that story alongside the framework it produced.
Most leadership books tell you what to change. This one also shows you how to tell whether you have.
Inside:
The Four Stages every leader moves through: Survival, the Decision Bottleneck, The Shift and Steward Leadership. You'll also see why most development stalls at the third.One diagnostic question that shows in minutes what is really running your organization. Nobody in the room needs to know the framework.The Gap between the leader you present and the one who decides under pressure, and how to see it in yourself.The Leadership Capacity Index: three scores tracked over twelve months against a baseline. Progress shows up in numbers a CFO can read.The 48-hour residue test for telling clear judgement apart from decisions made under load.A free assessment that shows you where you are on the map.Every chapter ends with one question to think about and one thing to do this week.
This book is for leaders who have achieved what the conventional map promised and suspect the next stage asks for something different. It gives you the map, a way to find yourself on it, and proof from someone who has already made the crossing that it doesn't have to cost you what it cost her.
