Eliminate the “interpersonal mush” to lead collaboration and learning
CLEAR LEADERSHIP
Sustaining Real Collaboration and Partnership at Work
Revised Edition
Hidden agendas, unresolved conflicts, crucial issues
never discussed… What the author calls interpersonal
mush dominates the workplace and hampers honest
communication, creates misunderstanding, and pre-
vents teams, workgroups, and entire organizations from
realizing the promise of sustained partnerships and col-
laboration. Clear Leadership tackles these issues head-
on, providing specific tools and techniques as well as
personal stories of individuals up and down the corpo-
rate ladder who have put the principles and practices of
clear leadership—beginning with interpersonal clarity
and honesty—into action and thereby achieved out-
standing results for themselves and their organizations.
Expanding on the powerful concepts that made the

THE INNOVATION ZONE
How Great Companies Re-innovate for Amazing Success
For Steve Jobs and Bill Ford, Microsoft and 3M, a new
business model of innovation has become the driving
force behind their success. With strong leadership and
a disciplined process, today’s leaders are creating more
than great products—they are taking the role of inno-
vation beyond R&D, placing it squarely at the center of
the organization’s core competencies, and changing the
very nature of the customer experience.
Packed with examples and stories about the way
innovation takes place inside dozens of next-generation
global organizations, The Innovation Zone takes a first-
hand look behind the glitz of the latest gadgets to
explore the methods, tools, and behaviors that build
increasing market value for the company, respect for
the brand, and long-term competitive dominance. This

DEVELOPING EXEMPLARY PERFORMANCE
ONE PERSON AT A TIME
Isolating a performance opportunity is the first step in
helping an employee develop and grow. But only when
the most targeted solution—whether a job redesign or
one-on-one coaching or training—is identified and
applied to each improvement focus can individuals
achieve exemplary performance and organizations suc-

Author Michael Sabbag rejects the notion that one
solution fits all as he focuses on matching the right
solution to a given performance opportunity. He pre-

around his Seven Factors that Drive Performance: talent
and fit, environment, tools and resources, systems and

NEW TITLES 9
Richard P. Finnegan
How do organizations keep the workers they want?
Until now, employee retention strategies have been
based on instincts rather than research. With no firm
body of knowledge to use as a guide, employee
turnover has been a problem for all organizations. This
book is the first to offer a top-to-bottom, organization-
wide retention action plan. Many organizations lose
employees and profits because they don’t know which
processes to put into place to cut employee turnover.
They speak of building retention cultures but don’t
know who should do what and when. This hands-on
tactical guide gives those answers, providing specific
strategies and tactics backed by the author’s own
research and on-site experience. It is essential reading
for all types of organizations—large or small, public or
private, with high concentrations of low-skilled or high-
skilled workers, and across multiple industries. Also
addressed is how to retain your high-performing work-
ers in slow economic times. If you are losing workers
you want to keep, this book will tell you how to put
retention solutions in place across your company.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE BY
BEING YOURSELF
Using Your Personality Type at Work and in Relationships
Gregory E. Huszczo
Making a Difference by Being Yourself deconstructs
how one’s unique person-ality type frames what “mak-
ing a difference” means and drives the actions we take
to leave our mark on the people and organizations we
care about. Building on the powerful fundamentals of
the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® assessment, a dynam-
ic framework identifies four key types—Stabilizers,
Harmonizers, Catalysts, and Visionaries—and combines
with research and stories from over 500 people to chart
a journey of self-discovery and beyond. With dozens of
exercises, assessment tools, and examples, Making a
Difference by Being Yourself delivers a complete toolkit
to take personal insight and awareness to the next
level: to live life consciously and exploit our strengths
and talents in ways that make a meaningful difference.

WHAT’S YOUR TYPE OF CAREER? WAS THAT REALLY ME?

Unlock the Secrets of Your Personality to Find Your How Everyday Stress Brings Out Our Hidden Personality
Perfect Career Path

Donna Dunning Naomi L. Quenk

Foreword by Katharine D. Myers

To be happy and successful in your career, you need to
be doing work that fits your personality. Donna Dunning
provides concrete links between personality and career
to help anyone manage transition, enrich a career path,
or move into opportunities that best suit his or her
unique talents. On the basis of data from thousands of
people working in hundreds of different jobs, Dunning
uses the personality type theory of the MBTI® instrument
to identify eight natural work styles and explores how
people use each to communicate, organize, approach
tasks, solve problems, make decisions, lead, and be led.
With exercises, checklists, tips, and strategies, this book
offers an easy five-step career planning process that

possibilities.”
In this classic, psychologist Naomi Quenk explores
what we keep hidden within but reveal when we are
stressed. Outlining the stress patterns of the 16 person-
ality types, she includes startling information on work-
related stress and what happens to us when we oper-
ate in a stress mode over a long period. We all have
experienced unexpected or inconsistent behavior in our-
selves and others. Using Jungian type theory and the
MBTI® personality inventory as a framework to unravel
this fascinating and confusing side of human personality,
Quenk argues that the inferior function is a natural,
healthy part of personality that can lead to enriched
understanding and personal growth. The book offers a

Four Key Questions to Ask Before Your Next Career Move Guiding Your Child Through the Process of Career Discovery

as Greece, as trendy as New Age, the concept of genius
is fully grounded in contemporary life through dozens of
inspiring stories of people who have realized the trans-
formative power of this simple yet life-changing pro-
cess. Filled with practical strategies and hands-on exer-

THE NEXT LEVEL
What Insiders Know About Executive Success
Recent research has shown that some 40 percent of
new executives don’t last 18 months. In The Next Level,
Scott Eblin draws on 20 years of experience as a leader
and executive coach to identify why new executives fail
and offers a practical program for achieving success.
Rising executives must understand that the strengths
and actions that drove their career progress at lower
levels will not necessarily sustain their success as
“ Whether you are a seasoned executive or on your
executives. They need to adopt new behaviors and
beliefs, and let go of old ones. Eblin identifies nine sets
of opposing behaviors that can make or break new
executives and describes how to handle them. The
book concludes with a process for readers who want to
identify their highest-priority development opportunities

5-D LEADERSHIP
Key Dimensions for Leading in the Real World
Scott Campbell and Ellen Samiec

there is only one way to be an effec-

what it takes to be a successful
leader: a continual shifting between
various leadership approaches to
respond to whatever each unique
situation demands. Bringing together
real-world examples, Campbell and

most successful leaders today: com-

THE MYTH OF LEADERSHIP
Creating Leaderless Organizations
Jeffrey S. Nielsen
In this unconventional book, Jeffrey
Nielsen calls for an end to “rank-
based” organizational structures,
which foster secrecy and miscom-
munication, and steal the joy from
work, while breeding corruption and
abuse of power. Nielsen’s new
model is the “peer-based” orga-niza-
tion, which uses rotating peer lead-
ership councils and cross-functional
task forces to manage the organiza-
tion’s work. Nielsen’s experience
with dozens of organizations
showed that artificial barriers con-

COMPETENCY-BASED HUMAN
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
David D. Dubois and William J. Rothwell with
Deborah Jo King Stern and Linda K. Kemp
This book describes how to reinvent
the human resource department so
that job competencies—rather than
job descriptions—become the
foundation for all HR efforts. The
authors show how to identify the
key competencies that distinguish
best-in-class performers from aver-
age performers and use them as the
basis for all HR functions, including
planning, recruiting and selecting,
training, and performance develop-
ment. The book provides planning
tools, checklists, worksheets, and
practical aids to help make the
transition from a work-based to a
“ Thorough, honest, solid, and
competency-based environment.
