Dynamic Leader Adaptive Organization

Larraine Segil's book "Dynamic Leader Adaptive Organization" is truly a superb business management digest to serve all cultures across our world continents on what it takes to obtain good organizational results. Through her 10 Essential Traits, she sites hundreds of real life positive examples that provide a path to maximize our opportunities and accomplish our goals.

Leadership Starts From Within

Of the many "management" books I have read, Ms. Segil is the first to clearly articulate an approach that is critical in today's business environment--look at the behavior and motivation of the leader first. Most will agree that it is the people and not the process that moves the business ball forward. It is refreshing that she emphasizes the values and behaviors of the leader in the Ten Essential Traits and also provides the tools to build a foundation. I recommend this book highly for managers who are ready to put down their organizational charts and first look at themselves to facilitate change.
