Description
Most people get into leadership when they are given a leadership title. With a title, some may think that they have all they need to lead. This is a terrible mistake. Just because you have a title, it doesn't mean that you are leader. No. Leaders often start with a title, but for them to effectively lead they must also attain the permission to lead from their team. If you want to get the permission to lead from your team, the shortest distance to do so is to connect on a personal level with each team member. This means finding out what your team member dreams about, sings about, and cries about. It means asking smart questions that cause people to think and then listening intently to their responses. It means being curious, spending time with your people, and even having a little fun with them. You see, most people communicate but few actually connect. This book will teach you how to be an uncommon leader by connecting on a deep, personal level - giving you the permission to lead. Fail to do so and your leadership will eventually fail. Follow the suggestions in this book and you'll be known as an uncommon connector.
