Category: Leadership Systems and Strategies

Transforming Your Leadership Culture,  Jossey-Bass Publishers, A Wiley Imprint,  2009

John B. McGuire & Gary B. Rhodes

Imagine the power of leadership as a unified force for adaptable, sustainable, organizational change, and you can see why we say “Change the leadership culture and you change the organizational culture.” This book is first and foremost for executives and organizational leaders who see that change is necessary but are skeptical that lasting, sustainable change—transformation—lies beyond their reach. When leaders take on and follow through on cultural transformation alongside their strategic and operational changes, they consistently succeed in terms of performance goals—while other organizations fail to change and struggle to survive. Think of this book as your survival guide to leading change.

Praise for Transforming Your Leadership Culture

"If you are a leader who has been burned by the failure of traditional change management—remember that program that cost millions and didn't change a thing—this is the book for you. It provides a wholly new perspective for transforming leaders and your organization's culture simultaneously, and rapidly."

—Michael Beer, chairman, TruePoint, and professor emeritus, Harvard Business School

"John McGuire and Gary Rhodes provided solid support as we transformed our company from a top-down, do-your-job-because-I-said-so culture to a collaborative learning community of leaders within a process-centered organization. I cannot imagine having done it without them."

—Loyal Peterman, president and founder, Abrasive Technology, Inc.

"It is becoming more and more obvious that a developmental view of the human being is the core of any effective human change process. Transforming Your Leadership Culture is the latest book—and one of the best books—about how and why this is so, and how to implement it in your own business. Highly recommended!"

—Ken Wilber, founder, Integral Institute, and author of The Integral Vision and Integral Psychology
