Abstract "This leadership classic enables you to discover your True North: the internal compass that guides you successfully through life. When you follow your True North, you can unlock your full potential as a leader and human being. The third edition offers a concrete and comprehensive guide for becoming an authentic leader and reveals how you can chart your path to success. It includes a diverse array of leaders across industries, and addresses issues of equity and inclusion in leadership. Updates to the third edition include: A new introduction with strong advocacy for authentic leadership and contrast with other (failed) forms of leadership development: power-based leadership, faking it till you make it," low self-monitoring, dangers of authenticity, fixing faults, competency models, and style coaching. Updated stories and examples throughout, including a new lead story for the chapters on self-awareness and values. New leaders: Doug Baker/Ecolab; Hubert Joly & Hortense Legentil; Patrice Louvet/Ralph Lauren; Doug McMillon/Walmart; Alex Gorsky/J John Hope Bryant/Operation Hope; Tsedal Neeley, Gianrico Farrugia; Ramon Laguarta. Content on leading in times of crisis and dealing with social issues; generational leadership; inclusive leadership, including diversity, equity, and inclusion; public leadership"-- Provided by publisher.
