Winning
Without Losing Your Way
Character Centered Leadership
By Rebecca
Barnett
Great
leaders are the foundation from which corporations are built each
day. Knowing how to gain the respect of your employees while maintaining
loyalty to your business is a tightrope managers must walk each
day. With one wrong step, all of their hard work and years of dedication
can slip out from under them. The result would leave them trying
to piece together the shattered remains.
In
Winning Without Losing Your Way; Character Centered Leadership,
Rebecca Barnett uses the principals of judo-respect, courage, benevolence,
loyalty, truth and integrity--to promote a harmonious balance that
should serve as a role model for every manager. She shows readers
how to succeed without compromising their ethical beliefs and values.
Her use of her own personal stories allows the readers to see her
methods are an effective means that have been proven to produce
tremendous results.
I feel
a connection with Rebecca Barnett's writing. Having majored in Management
and Supervision, I know first hand what dilemma managers are faced
with each day. One of the primary reasons I selected to get a degree
in this major is because I watched many great leaders "sell
out" their beliefs and adopt what the company deemed as "appropriate
management techniques." By continuing to seek out and gain
knowledge from such expert authors as Rebecca Barnett, I hope I
will one day be the type of leader who will receive respect from
both my employees and management. I know the road to being a well-thought-of
leader is paved with a lot of obstacles. Hopefully, by being open
minded to new techniques, I will gain the experience to be a good
leader.
