All organizations are capable of overcoming the barriers to excellence. They need a system that supports productive leadership. The Productive Leadership System™ is comprised of organizational accountability and individual leadership capability. The Organizational Reliability Model™ is an excellent model for organizational accountability. The Productive Leadership Model™ provides the specifics on individual leadership capabilities.

The chapters cover:

  1. Why leadership is important, the costs and benefits of improving leadership and the need to be working on the right problems.
  2. Important aspects of the human brain. People (leaders and followers) can learn throughout their lives. Learning is the basis of behaviors. Behaviors are the basis of habits and habits are the basis for culture.
  3. Organizational Reliability is a system model that assigns accountability. At each leadership level the senior person sets guidance and assets. The junior persons at each leadership level are accountable to execute with current guidance and current assets, and to communicate deficiencies to the senior person. Most leaders have accountabilities as a senior person and as a junior person.
  4. Productive Leadership is a leader, provided with guidance and assets, applying leadership roles, attributes and skills, through sources of power, to influence others to achieve goals. Leaders must have the capability to execute their accountabilities. It’s much more than just leadership skills.
