About the Book
You can be good at your job and still be difficult to work for.
Being knowledgeable, experienced or technically brilliant doesn't automatically make someone a good leader. Leadership also involves understanding people, making decisions, having difficult conversations and recognising how your behaviour affects others.
That's part of what makes leadership challenging. People are different, circumstances change and the right answer isn't always obvious.
Leadership 101: Don't Be a Dick takes a straightforward approach to thinking about leadership. It encourages readers to consider their own behaviour, the way they work with other people and the standards they set.
The title might make you smile. The subject deserves to be taken seriously.
Who is this book for?
Whether you're responsible for two people or two hundred, the way you lead influences the experience and performance of those around you.
Experienced Managers
Experience brings valuable judgement, but it can also create habits that are worth questioning from time to time.
Business Owners & Senior Leaders
The further your decisions reach through an organisation, the more important it becomes to understand their effect on other people.
A Practical Perspective
Leadership starts with how we behave.
There are plenty of leadership models, theories and frameworks. They can be useful, but they don't replace the everyday decisions and interactions that determine how people experience our leadership.
Personal Responsibility
Recognising how your own behaviour influences the people around you.
Understanding People
Remembering that different people bring different experiences, perspectives and motivations to work.
Constructive Challenge
Being willing to have uncomfortable conversations without making them unnecessarily personal.
Consistent Standards
Making expectations clear and recognising the importance of applying them fairly.
