Description
The 8 Dimensions of Leadership is the first book to explore leadership through the lens of Inscape’s third generation DiSC model of human behavior. This title is designed to paint an inclusive picture of the varied approaches that make for strong leadership. It primarily focuses on the interpersonal realm of leadership and helps readers identify which of the eight approaches comes most naturally to them.
Jeffrey Sugerman, Mark Scullard and Emma Wilhelm show readers how to determine which of the eight DiSC dimensions aligns best with their leadership approach: Pioneering, Energizing, Affirming, Inclusive, Humble, Deliberative, Resolute or Commanding.
The authors explore the strengths and weaknesses of each style in depth. But they also emphasize that any single-dimensional approach to leadership is incomplete. It’s not enough to just build on your strengths. To be truly effective you need to incorporate all eight dimensions into your leadership approach. This book will give readers new, scientifically-based insights into what makes them tick as leaders and show them how they can continue to hone their skills.
