"Leadership challenges exist at almost every organizational level due, in part, to inadequate experience and inapplicable training and education systems. Inspired by such great Americans as William Clyde Friday, Louis Stokes, and Walter Leland Cronkite, Dr. Alex Johnson believes this predicament can be overcome through an organic and sustainable leadership approach that emerges from within. He has constructed a leadership model based on the education, experiences, and exposures you possess. Change the Lapel Pin is designed to help you uncover these "Three Essentials of Leadership" and hone your natural abilities. It will help you establish skills and competencies immediately, especially those normally developed throughout your leadership journey. These include the capacity to transform the culture of an organization, look and act like a leader, manage as a leader, recognize and eliminate challenges, and provide for your ongoing development and that of your colleagues"--,Amazon.com
