Get things done with the skills of a Proactive Leader
Professor Samuel Bacharach's theories of Proactive Leadership will make you a better manager or leader in your organization. Period. Building effective agendas, getting people on board with new ideas, pushing new ideas forward to implementation, and sustaining momentum; that is what Proactive Leadership is about. Becoming politically competent makes sense and it gets results. In the high tech world in which I consult, change is inevitable and usually turbulent. Knowing how to navigate the waters of change using Professor Bacharach's theories and techniques has been essential to my success and I highly recommend Dr. Bacharach's podcasts, books, as well as his online series delivered through Cornell University. There are a lot of experts, books, and publications out there telling you what needs to get done; Dr. Bacharach tells you how to get things done.
