A groundbreaking new approach to dramatically improving your performance as a leader, using seven distinct tools that build significant, lasting improvements
Several years ago, Dr. Peter Fuda conducted groundbreaking research of CEOs who had dramatically and measurably succeeded at transforming themselves and their organizations. This research revealed several common themes, such as using accountability as a tool to build momentum and encouraging authenticity as a means to increase trust and commitment.
Dr. Fuda organized these key similarities into seven leadership metaphors, from Fire (the motivational forces that start and sustain transformative efforts) to Snowball (how accountability can help create critical mass, reducing friction and increasing momentum), and unveiled this framework in a widely regarded Harvard Business Review article.
The overwhelming response to his article convinced Fuda to write the manual on transformative leadership, expanding the seven metaphors into a comprehensive system anyone can use to effect significant, lasting improvements in themselves, their teams, and their organizations.
This slim motivation guidebook was written to bridge the gap between the academic research on motivation and to present it in a form that is useful to the practicing manager. In essence, the book presents a theory of motivation and how to use it without ever mentioning the word “theory”. The goal of the book is to give managers a kind of mental model to use in thinking about motivation and to show them how to use this mental model for practical management actions to diagnose and improve motivation of subordinates. The book is written in three sections: Understanding Motivation, Diagnosing Motivation and Improving Motivation. The book incorporates case studies and many examples of how to successfully manage motivation.
