1. To The Top: How extraordinary leaders lead ‘in the zone’

Cheri Rainey (Author), Susan Rochester (Author)

Why It’s Worth Reading:  This book answers the question: What do great leaders do differently that makes their leadership so effective?

What makes leadership really work? If leadership — as we traditionally know it — is the answer to these questions, then books like this wouldn’t need to be written. But traditional leadership isn’t working. There are too many examples of leadership failure for anyone to suggest otherwise.

There is an alternative to the traditional model, a way of leading that has worked throughout history and will work today. In TO THE TOP, Cheri Rainey and Susan Rochester outline the “How to” for replicating outstanding leadership – an approach to leadership that great leaders have unknowingly fallen into for centuries and attempted to replicate intuitively.

The world’s greatest leaders know a way to lead that is effective, powerful, and real – and different from the traditional textbook form of leadership.
