The Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) is the world's premier institution devoted exclusively to leadership research and education. For more than three decades, CCL has worked with hundreds of thousands of executives to create practical models, tools, and publications for the development of effective leaders and organizations. This important collection is drawn from CCL's long-running publication Leadership in Action. The guide examines the skills that you need to successfully give and receive feedback, make use of coaching, work with difference, deal with change, achieve work-life balance, and address the larger issue of expanding the leadership capacity of your organization.
