100 Days To Leadership Impact

Casey Reason's 100 Days to Leadership Impact prepares leaders to make an impact in their first 100 days while creating momentum and setting expectations for day 101 and beyond. Every leader wants to be a force for positive change, bringing improvements or even a breakthrough to his or her organization. Leaders today are expected to make an impact on results quickly. Effective leaders do this not by making superhuman individual efforts, but by creating an organizational culture that is driven to learn, collaborate, innovate, and improve together. The resulting connected culture has exponentially increased learning power. Resourceful leaders use the science of how human emotions, mental models, and organizational history affect culture and work with, not against, those things to effect change and create a connected culture. The author describes four phases of the 100-day timeline to create a connected culture and make a leadership impact. Using vivid narratives to illustrate common leadership issues, the author provides step-by-step strategies to address each one. End-of-chapter reflection questions inspire readers to consider their own unique leadership styles. The four phases of the 100-day timeline are as follows: Phase 1 (Day 1 6): Creating a Lasting First Impression Phase 2 (Day 7 39): Getting in Motion Phase 3: (Day 40 69): Testing and Trusting Phase 4: (Day 70 100): Celebrating and Looking Forward
