Lead Like a Person: Not Like a Position

Unlock the true potential of front-line leaders! This transformative
guide is the essential companion for emerging leaders taking their first
steps into people management, as well as for those supervising front-
line leaders.

In an era where traditional hierarchical structures are fast becoming obsolete,
leadership that connects on a human level has never been more crucial. Yet the way we
develop leaders sets up first-time people leaders to lead more like a position than a
person.

of taking top performers, putting them into people-leader roles, and expecting their
position skills to magically transform into leadership skills. By taking a people-centric
approach to developing new leaders, you can increase engagement, reduce turnover,
and improve performance.
