We all have leadership roles. You don''t have to have a title to be a leader. If friends come to you for answers, if a child holds your hand as you are grocery shopping, if a youngster is on the receiving end of a game of catch, if you are involved in an organizational activity and members ask what you think, if people look to you for direction, you are a leader. We encourage you to explore Leadership in new ways. Take a look around you and you will find lessons in leadership everywhere.

"What Happy Companies Know will be one of the most important business books in our time. The science of happiness is a crucial strategy for the health and wellness of both leaders and their organizations if they are truly capable of `leading beyond the walls''-getting the best from people both within and beyond the organization."---Frances Hesselbein, founding president and current chairman, Leader to Leader Institute "...Relevant to both the CEO concerned with motivating workers and the employee figuring out how to improve personal coping skills."---Publishers Weekly "As a former U.S. Secretary of Labor, I''ve been involved in countless business and labor negotiations. I''ve generally witnessed situations when companies were at their worst, and can''t help but think that if they were `happy companies'' things might have been less stressful. What Happy Companies Know is filled with brilliant and original ideas that can improve the health of any company-big or small. The executive health and business culture principles are applicable to all areas of labor relations. This book provides the tools necessary to assist companies in the planning and organization essential for profitable and positive negotiations."---W.J. Usery, Jr., former U.S. Secretary of Labor "The authors'' central concept that `happiness'' is not a result, but rather the cause of success, will change basic business thinking. Instead of ROI, they focus on ROP, return on people, and encourage applying the techniques of the human potential movement to the process of doing business. This book should be on the reading list of every executive and every board member of every type of organization."---Jonathan Estrin, executive vice president, American Film Institute "Filled with practical ways to master `the softer side'' of business, this guide will help employers effectively implement change and produce more cooperative, innovative, and dedicated employees...Thanks to the authors'' thorough research and accessible style, readers will understand not just how to improve their companies, but why it''s necessary. Original and intelligent-a `complete blueprint'' for building a happy and successful organization."---Kirkus Reports

The follow-up to Marshall Goldsmith''s 500,000-copy bestseller The Leader of the Future, Global Leadership: The Next Generation systematically identifies what tomorrow''s leaders will need to know, do and believe in order to successfully lead the global enterprise of the future. Drawing on the results of an extraordinary 2-year Accenture study of emerging business leaders, this book shows why the skills of today''s global leaders won''t be enough--and why tomorrow''s leaders won''t resemble today''s. Goldsmith and his co-authors first identify five new "factors of leadership" and their implications: global thinking, appreciation of diversity, technological savvy, a willingness to partner and an openness to sharing leadership. They explain what it will mean to lead in an era where intellectual capital is the dominant source of value; how to lead people whose backgrounds and values may be radically dissimilar from yours; and why achieving personal self-mastery is now a fundamental prerequisite for leading others. From the evolution of "federated," semi-autonomous organizational structures to the personal leadership challenges now arising from globalism, this book offers unprecedented insights into the new challenges of leadership--and what it will take to meet them.
