Executive Presence - RESULTS

One of ten books in the Executive Presence series.

Effective leaders want positive, timely outcomes. They are results-oriented. How do they consistently produce results? Results don’t come from good intentions or busywork.

Results come from a commitment to getting things done and making needed changes on a timely basis. Few organizations report high levels of achieving results. The norm appears to be settling for mediocrity when it comes to on-time, innovative results.

 How can we get results? First, leaders need to have a clear vision and understand how generating results relates to the big picture. This means connecting vision to strategy and coming up with ways to get things done.

Excellent leaders create environments in which their team succeeds at creating results. They know how to leverage relationships to produce outcomes.
