Leaders Open Doors: A Radically Simple Leadership Approach to Lift People, Profits, and Performance

Summary

Leadership is the most overanalyzed, thoroughly dissected, and utterly confused topic in business. In Leaders Open Doors, author Bill Treasurer helps lighten the leadership load by distilling that leaders are simply creators of opportunity for others. Using personal stories and anecdotes, Treasurer presents the idea of open-door leadership–that is, the responsibility that leaders have for noticing, identifying, and creating opportunities for the benefit of people, organizations, and society. Each chapter includes useful and specific tips that can immediately be put into practice. Drawing on two decades of consulting experience, Treasurer introduces six unique opportunity doors: the proving-ground door the thought-shifting door the door to a second chance the doors you open for others the door to personal transformation the door to your open heart Treasurer shows that leadership isn’t a complex and abstract concept. It’s a set of practices and ideals passed from one person to another, across organizations and generations. It is a tradition that makes people’s lives better by opening doors of opportunities for them to thrive, achieve, and lead.
