Leadership Sustainability targets not only those who aspire to be future leaders, but also those who shoulder the responsibility of developing these future leaders. It lays special emphasis on the tasks of the line manager, who regularly supervises and oversees the activity of the employees in any organization.
It assists trainers who design and implement training programmes that are not only efficient, but also serve to leave an impact on all those involved. The book also targets immediate supervisors and higher level executives responsible for training programmes like HR managers, corporate trainers, and coaches. These executives have an important role to play in designing training schemes. It lays emphasis on the importance of realizing that training is not only about deciding what is to be changed, but also about how it is to be changed. The book also details how one has to bring in the required level of discipline for such changes.
Leadership Sustainability is concerned with bringing about essential changes to create the perfect environment. It also emphasizes on what is to be done to sustain these changes. It is explained in a sophisticated, detailed, and easily comprehensible manner. It stresses on the problem that organizations spend millions on training programmes, but the expenditure on leadership programmes is comparatively negligible. The book has the ability to introduce radical ideas that can help the Human Resources department of an organization, play an important role in organizational strategy. It allows new generation leaders to be bred in the organization.
Leadership Sustainability emphasizes on the mastery of seven essential disciplines to sustain leadership skills. These are Simplicity, Accountability, Time, Tracking, Resources, Emotion and Melioration.
The book stresses on the fact that while many people commit a huge amount of time and resources into leadership programmes regularly, a lot of them often revert to less effective ways without even realizing the same. This is where Leadership Sustainability comes in handy. It goes beyond the scope of conventional leadership guides and provides tools to prevent the slip back to inefficiency while guiding readers to a sustainable model for developing leadership skills.
