Description
Renowned executive coaches and global leadership strategists Jane Hyun and Audrey S. Lee offer lessons on the vital skill of "Flexing"-the art of switching leadership styles to lead people who are different from you more effectively, equipping managers for success with the multicultural workers of today and tomorrow. Flex offers a proactive strategy for managers to navigate and leverage diversity effectively in this new global economy, showing managers how to: understand the power gap, the social distance between you and those in the workplace of different cultures, ages, and gender; flex your management style, by stretching how you work and communicate with others, and bridging the gap with more effective communication, feedback tools and building healthy teams; and multiply the effect, by teaching these skills to others and closing the power gap with clients, customers, and partners to create innovative solutions. Creating flex in a company's management style will impact all aspects of developing the talent you have, attracting future talent and building relationships with customers in this competitive marketplace. Now, Flex: The New Playbook for Managing Across Differences shows you how.

    - The Power Gap: Learn to identify and close the social distance that separates you from team members across cultural, generational, and gender differences.- Leadership Development: Move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach and master the art of “Flexing”—adapting your management style to unlock the full potential of a diverse workforce.- Talent Management: Discover proven methods for developing the talent you have, attracting the best new hires, and retaining a high-performing, multicultural team.- Communication Styles: Go beyond theory with practical feedback tools and techniques for strengthening trust and improving communication with employees, clients, and partners.
