Leadership the Outward Bound Way Hard Cover Book
Price:
$34.95
Outward Bound has been teaching leadership internationally for more than sixty years. In the United States alone, some 700,000 people have learned life-changing, transferable leadership skills and strategies through Outward Bound experiences.
Now anyone can benefit from Outward Bound USA's collective wisdom and experience, as articulated by its top leadership experts.
Leadership the Outward Bound Way introduces readers to the fundamentals of good leadership: communicating effectively, building trust, building teams, overcoming fear, taking risks, and making decisions. The book explores how these leadership basics can be applied in different areas of life-in outdoor travel and recreation, in the office or the boardroom, and in community work or volunteerism.
The text is punctuated by accounts of real-life events during Outward Bound programs, call-outs of key points and helpful tips and case-study exercises. This leadership approach is based on a teaching method developed at the Harvard Business School that challenges and informs readers about how to respond to real-life leadership situations.
About the Authors In addition to the foreword by former U.S. President JIMMY CARTER, contributors to Leadership the Outward Bound Way include John Raynolds, Ashley Lodato, Robert Gordon, Caroline Blair-Smith, Joan Welsh and Mark Gerzon. Case studies by Jim Garrett. Edited by Rob Chatfield, Lewis Glenn, Christine Ummel Hosler and Kris Fulsaas.
