Product Description

Review


'The relationship between effective leaders and highly performing organisations is clear. As Head of the National School of Government's Centre for Strategic Leadership, Robin Ryde has overseen the development of many leaders from all sectors. We can learn from the varied experiences of these leaders and I commend Robin for bringing together and translating this vast body of knowledge into practical leadership wisdom.' - Sir Gus O'Donnell, Cabinet Secretary and Head of the Civil Service

'Bang up to date and full of insight, Robin Ryde will be required reading for anyone who wants to be a leader in an age of terrifying change.' Jeremy Vine, BBC Presenter

'An immensely enjoyable, provocative and intriguing book; your meetings will never be quite the same again and you will have Robin Ryde to thank for that.' Professor Keith Grint, Cranfield University & Defense Leadership Academy

'This book provides real insights from an experienced and respected practitioner in the field of senior management development.' Iain Macdonald, Group vice President & Group Controller, BP plc

At last, an accessible business book that truly inspires and places passion at the heart of leadership Robert Swan OBE, the first man to walk to the North and South Poles

'A leader persuades people through reason, but compels them to action through emotion - Robin Ryde understands that and I am pleased he has put his wealth of experience into this book.' Simon Woodroffe Founder of YO! Sushi and YO! Everything else

'Its no longer enough, when leading in a complex, connected and fast changing world, to read about how others have lead and changed organisations in the past - even the recent past. This is the first leadership book that offers leaders real tools to help them understand how people think and real methods to change that thinking. Robin Ryde has pulled off the difficult trick of intellectual and academic analysis and grounded it in real experience having observed first hand hundreds of today's senior leadership figures across all sectors in action. Apply the tools - they really work!' Steve Mcguirk, President, Chief Fire Officers Association

'Ryde's work on leadership offers refreshing insights into how leadership can be expressed in terms of serving a group in their interactions and releasing a group's creative potential to address the challenges they face.' - The Rt Rev David Rossdale, Foundation for Church Leadership

'It's an intriguing book that offers tools to aid an understanding of how people think and methods to change that thinking. Its overall success is in coming an intellectual and academic analysis with the grounding of the author's first-hand observation of hundreds of senior leaders across all sections. - Oliver Rowe, Public Service Magazine
 
'This book contributes an interesting and valuable perspective on how we think and how that insight can benefit anyone adopting a leading role. Potentially it has far-reaching appeal and I would recommend it to anyone aspiring to improve their self-awareness, and general communication, meeting and change management skills.' Elizabeth Murphy, Library and Information Update


Jeremy Vine, BBC Presenter

`Bang up to date and full of insight, Robin Ryde will be required
reading for anyone who wants to be a leader in an age of terrifying
change.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read, easy to understand, real tools, 1 Aug 2007
By David Cushman (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
You'll finish this book in a couple of evenings, find it easy to digest - and start implementing the tools it gives you the very next day.
It explains the usual thought ruts we all end up in, how to get out of them, and how to pick the right channels to deliver the thinking you need.

It will change how you run or take part in meetings and guide you to consistently better thought results.

My only criticism is Robin needed a sharper-eyed proof reader. The too-high literal count (in this first edition, at least) can interrupt your reading flow/enjoyment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it! love it! love it!, 7 Nov 2008
This is a fantastic read and really original thinking. Robin Ryde sets about disassembling some of our most well worn and often tiresome habits of thinking, for example, what Robin calls 'deficit thinking' (always looking for flaws, faults, risks, weaknesses etc instead of thinking about strengths, what works, what value can be leveraged). The really fascinating bit though is how Robin sites his theory in the context of leadership and how leaders, essentially, need to change their habits if they want to inspire and unlock the talents of their workers. Fantastic!
