Description
This book offers a proven tool for sharpening one's competitive edge. Today's leading organizations have seized on the concept of transparency as the key to gaining the confidence of investors, employees, and customers - and gaining profits. In "The Transparency Edge", leadership expert Barbara Pagano demonstrates that transparency is more than an excellent policy - it is a powerful management skill that managers can learn and use to make themselves and their organizations more competitive. Presenting the nine behaviors that every successful leader uses to gain a transparency edge, Pagano shows readers how to use these techniques to build loyalty, gain trust, and establish an impeccable reputation for integrity. She also shows how this nothingto-hide approach enables organizations and their leaders to: make decisions more efficiently and execute them more effectively; speed up operations; identify problems sooner and solve them faster; build trust and collaboration within the organization; and establish a higher level of credibility.
