Description
In Become, Linkage's Mark Hannum provides an infrastructure of leadership development that supports and propels purposeful leadership-an urgently needed consciousness and daily practice in an age when quality leaders are growing more and more rare. Hannum spearheaded research involving the assessment of 100,000 leaders, and then established the Purposeful Leadership Model that enforces commitments, not competencies; behaviors, not best practices; and practice over personality. The author emphasizes that anyone, including "unlikely leaders," can be a purposeful leader by identifying her or his "what" and "why," and embodying and executing five commitments: Engage, Inspire, Innovate, Achieve, and Become.
