Reseña del libro "Where Poppies Thrive: Leadership in a Harsh World (en Inglés)"
In today's environment, professional mastery, technical expertise and intellectual ability alone do not make you stand out as an exceptional leader. Employers and followers expect, want and need more.Developed in response to a pressing need for future-ready organisations and leaders Where Poppies Thrive boldly casts leadership forward, showing leaders who they need to be and what they need to do rather than looking back at past discussions.Using the poppy to represent resilient, hopeful and opportunistic leadership, it provides a contemporary view of the imagined future for Australia, projected leadership requirements and strategies for cultivating the next generation of national leaders.In her work as a psychologist and leadership development practitioner, Dr Bec Jackson has witnessed misses in predictions, outdated development efforts, and failed approaches to build positive leadership cultures. Against the flow, she has successfully coached hundreds of leaders in the military, government and public space to enhance and develop their capacity, commitment and character, to lead their teams and organisations into the future.In this book Dr Bec shares her insights into what differentiates exceptional leaders from the rest, and shows you how to become the agile, authentic, future-ready leader the world is crying out for.'Dr Bec Jackson not only coaches our future leaders on authentic leadership - she lives it every day. She has mentored hundreds of future strategic leaders and her approach is a core part of our development of high performing and ethical national security leaders for an era of accelerating change and uncertainty.'Major General Ryan, Commander Australian Defence College
