Utgivarens beskrivning
At some point, every single one of us has reached a point of frustration. A situation where we knew that we were having impact that was far less than what we were capable of. Large organizations are filled with smart people who have great ideas. Unfortunately, most of these people find themselves stymied in their ability to bring people to their full potential and ideas to fruition
It doesn’t have to be that way.
In Tap Into Greatness, noted performance coach and educator Sarah Singer-Nourie reveals the key truths of having outsized impact, influence and power. It turns out that most of us aren’t leading. We’re simply managing. We’re getting things done, but we’re not inspiring others to excel beyond what’s expected. Great leaders know better. They know leadership isn’t magic. It’s not just something you’re born with. Leadership is learnable.
In this engaging and hands-on book, Singer-Nourie provides tools that have been developed over the last twenty years in her work with leaders and teams in corporate America, Silicon Valley startups, schools and non-profit organizations. The methodology is based on how people actually learn, rather than how most of us were taught in school. It leverages the insights of human motivation and the latest research in neuroscience to give leaders a roadmap for having impact.
Readers who put the tools of Tap Into Greatness into practice have immediate and often surprising results. They find themselves able to influence colleagues who were previously unmoved. They’re able to inspire teammates to go above and beyond the call of duty. And they create teams that make better decisions even when the leader isn’t in the room.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
As a "gifted underachiever" and teacher, trainer, and motivator, Singer-Nourie promises to help managers "unlock the brilliant leader inside" and subsequently help their team members discover their own possibilities in this spirited, if underdeveloped, how-to guide. Singer-Nourie was certain that there had to be a better method for leading and motivating people than the leadership styles she had observed in the workplace, so she created one, and guides readers through it in this book. Managers will learn to pose motivation-boosting challenges, using "WIIFM" (What's In It For Me?) techniques, which take into account the question that, according to Nourie, is "in everyone's head, all the time." Leaders will learn to accommodate different learning styles. Though Singer-Nourie keeps the energy level high with pop phrases like "own it" and "let's do this" and sports terms (such as a "halftime review"), she never provides solid business examples. And though it's easy to see how Singer-Nourie's pace and attitude can pump up teams and their leaders the book would have been strengthened by more details about her teaching career, from which she shares just one story. The author warns that reading this book is just the beginning of the learning process; it's not a "read-and-shelve book." It is, however, a very effective motivational tool for managers.
