100 Days to Leadership Impact prepares leaders to make an impact in their first 100 days in a new leadership position while creating momentum and setting expectations for day 101 and beyond.
Every leader wants to be a force for meaningful innovation in their organization, bringing improvements or even game-changing breakthroughs. In a less patient, results driven economy leaders must drive innovations that are both immediate and sustainable. This is done by creating a self sustaining organizational culture that learns more and collaborates and grows at a higher level.
This is not easy task. However, resourceful leaders today make strategic use of the latest brain research and innovations in adult learning theory to help build a better working culture designed to engage, create, connect, and innovate like never before. In this book Dr. Reason describes the four phases of the 100-day timeline designed to improve transitions and indeed initiate a meaningful leadership impact.
Using vivid narratives from working CEOs and leaders in the field combined with some of the latest breakthroughs in individual and team learning, this book provides a common sense, step-by-step approach to building a better culture for change and indeed learning innovation like never before!
The four phases of the 100-day timeline are as follows:
- Phase 1: (Days 1-6) Creating a Lasting First Impression
- Phase 2: (Days 7-39) Getting in Motion
- Phase 3: (Days 40-69) Testing and Trusting
- Phase 4: (Days 70-100) Celebrating and Looking Forward
