Description:
As a generation of baby boomers nears retirement, our
country is facing a dilemma. By 2010, there may be a
shortage of 4 to 6 million workers, causing a dearth of
effective leaders. Nearly every recent crisis corporate
bankruptcies, political scandals, moral failures in the
church can be traced to a leadership deficit. The common
denominator? Broken trust.
Author Les T. Csorba sees trust as the most indispensable
force between leaders and followers. Here he offers
observations gleaned from two decades of experience in
government, business, church, and family. Part meditation,
part how-to manual, Trust examines characteristics of
trusted leadership, including The 7 Principles of the Trust.
Finally, the book features interactive elements such as The
Leader Check: a guide to evaluating whether you are
developing the trust necessary to motivate and richly lead
followers.
