Effective leadership is an influence process where leaders implement everyday, commonsense approaches that help people and organizations thrive. Yet somehow, many of these fundamental principles are still missing from most workplaces. In

•  Who should make the first move to extend trust

•  What role a successful apology plays in building trust

•  When to use different strokes (leadership styles) for different folks—and for the same folks

•  Where the most important part of leadership happens

•  How to create autonomy through boundaries

•  Why the key to developing people is catching them doing something right

A fun, easy read that will make a positive difference in leadership and organizational success,
Simple Truths of Leadership will show readers how to incorporate simple but essential practices into their leadership style, build trust through servant leadership, and enhance their own lives and the lives of everyone around them.
