Download Chess Not Checkers: Elevate Your Leadership Game AudioBook Free
In his latest business fable, top command author Tag Miller tells the storyplot of newly appointed CEO Blake Dark brown, who takes over a business distressed by poor performance and low morale. Nothing Blake discovered from his previous job appears to help him offer with the bigger, more complex problems he now faces. The overall game has altered. As his new mentor points out, Blake is participating in a straightforward game of checkers when he should be participating in chess. Miller uses this metaphor to show how leaders can encourage deep, proper thinking throughout an organization and utilize the unique abilities of each worker (bishops move in different ways than knights). He explains how to use the "chess not checkers" mentality in four critical areas: command development, employee engagement, organizational alignment, and execution. This is an attractive, accessible guide to assisting all leaders think in advance, plan their steps, and avoid getting checkmated by circumstances or opponents.
