Acknowledgments.
Preface: Oversights and Insights.
Part I: A Perspective on Leadership Assessment.
There is a disconnect between what is generally known about leadership and the way leaders are assessed in most organizations. The first part of the book identifies these oversights and recommends ways of correcting for them. The first part, largely descriptive, lays out the book’s foundation.
1. Think Volume Control: Don’t Overuse Your Strengths.
2. “Mirror, Mirror . . .”: Look for Excess Too.
3. Know Your Own Strength.
4. The Impact of Mind-Set: Learning the Inner Game of Leadership.
Part II: Two Major Oppositions in Leadership.
Of all the oppositions, dichotomies, polarities or dualities in leadership, two stand out as arguably the most important to a leader’s effectiveness. They are: (1) forceful and enabling leadership, and (2) strategic and operational leadership.
5. Forceful and Enabling Leadership: The Power of Both.
6. Strategic and Operational Leadership: The Power of Both.
Part III: Prescriptions for Development.
The third part offers ways to correct overdoing it, underdoing it, and the combination of both, lopsidedness. All three chapters describe the outer/behavioral work of development and the inner/personal work of development.The book concludes with an elaboration of an ideal of versatility, which if not a destination that most leaders will reach can nevertheless serve as a direction for their development.
7. Throttling Back.
8. Revving Up.
9. Adjusting Both Sides.
10. The Multi-Versatile Leader.
