Publisher Description
Leadership and teamwork are not natural. What IS natural are hierarchies and the dominance behaviors that are common within them. Most who claim to be leaders are not. They’ve never experienced the critical transformations needed to develop a naturally high capacity for influencing the members of a team in a way that inspires collaboration. As a result, their efforts to influence are awkward, careless, and damaging. The good news, however, is that this transformation is always within reach, no matter how much or how little leadership experience you have. But it begins by confronting centuries-old attitudes about what it means to be….a superior. About the New Superior The New Superior is a bold but heartfelt tutorial on the fundamentals of contemporary high-stakes leadership, drawn from the unique experiences and insights of one of America’s most respected forensic laboratory executives. Urgency energizes teams in the face of existential threats. But momentum is often sacrificed by toxic influencers whose need to dominate suppresses collaboration, even in matters of life and death. From the bombing of the 1996 Olympics to the brutal slaying of a young fashion model near Chicago, John M. Collins takes you inside of pressure-packed situations where to opposing styles of leadership confront each other in a primitive and dangerous struggle. In this struggle you will learn that both styles live within you, but only one will allow you to become the leader that people trust when everything is on the line.
