Blacksheep Leadership: a Story About a Leadership Challenge and the Nature of Transformational Leadership Large Type edition

Blacksheep Leadership argues that transformational leadership, while relatively rare in practice, is the best way to inspire extraordinary performance in groups of ordinary people. Part 1 of the book is a fictionalized account of a business leadership competition between three siblings, each having a distinctive style of leading. Part 2 explores the principles of transformational leadership and outlines a developmental process for becoming a highly effective Blacksheep leader. Part 3 offers detailed case studies of two transformational leaders: Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton and high school teacher Erin Gruwell.
