to Lead: Discover the Leader Within You."
Do you want to be a highly
effective leader? Do you want to develop the self-confidence,
vision, wisdom, motivational impact and delivery skills that
the most effective leaders have? And do you want to be the
person to whom, quite naturally, other people turn for direction?
And do you want to learn
the leadership "magic" of building a team whose members work together
effectively and positively, bringing the exceptional performance
improvements that good leadership and successful teamwork
can bring? And what about the rewards, respect and personal
growth that come with effective leadership?
This Course Helps Good Managers
Become
Exceptional Leaders
Looking
at where you are right now, do you feel that you're not
getting the rewards and recognition you deserve?
You may be very competent as a manager.
However, leadership is a different thing from management (they
complement one another). If you rely only on being a good
manager, you'll never inspire people to give their very best.
Because of this, people who are only good managers are
passed over for promotion - time and again...
The good news is that with just 24 hours
of study, you can learn to be an exceptional leader!
With just a little application, you can learn the
48 simple skills that will make you the wise, self-confident,
inspiring and successful leader you want to be. You'll say
goodbye to the mundane struggle of everyday management existence,
becoming the natural center of a positive, enthusiastic, well-motivated
and highly successful team.
Read on. It's all explained below!

system, you'll learn the essential, tried-and-tested leadership

sharp focus on leadership in the corporate world,
you'll learn the skills you need to lead effectively and positively

co-operative working relationships with team members and
peers. And enjoy the happy, energizing atmosphere
that comes with this;

and performing well together in a “firm
but fair way” that gets the job done while

success. You can join the ranks of the high flyers.

best ideas about leadership. Some of these concepts

tools that are included as part of the course, you make
visible areas of your leadership strength and areas
that can use some exercise. With assessments complete,
you can focus on the course content to take actions
in your daily work to improve your skills.
“This course is
thought provoking. It will require you to view yourself
honestly. If you truly want to develop the leader within,
take the course. You’re worth the effort."
Harold Strawbridge, Philadelphia,
USA
In the past, you'd have
spent years of painful trial and error learning the techniques
taught in this course. And, not knowing these skills, you
would not have been performing at your best during this time
(even worse, you could easily have made mistakes which were,
if only you'd known, all too avoidable.)
But now, with Mind Tools' "How to Lead" leadership
system, you'll quickly learn the essential skills you need
to be a truly effective leader.
With How to Lead,
you can be a truly exceptional leader.
Case Study:
Joe Broderick,
South Brunswick,
USA
"I had been
working in an administrative position for
about three years and was thinking about
what to do, professionally, to move to the
next level. I felt I was managing things
very well, but was inexperienced in working
with or leading people. In particular, I
wanted to try to build a team where all the
members were contributing according to their
ability.
"I happened to
go to the MindTools website completely by
accident. I was hesitant to purchase
something through the web that was unproven.
But I think the usefulness that I found in
the publicly accessible part of the
MindTools website was very reassuring and
gave me confidence that if I were to
purchase something, it would really be of
value. And the amount that I was risking was
relatively small, so I went ahead."
"My confidence
in How to Lead has been validated. I have
found the material to be stimulating,
informative, and encouraging. It’s very well
organized and fits well into the 30-60
minutes per day that I have to devote to my
personal development. I feel that I got
excellent value for my purchase."
Joe Broderick,
South Brunswick, USA

James Manktelow, CEO, MindTools.com
Co-Author: “How to Lead: Discover the Leader Within
You”
Dear Soon to be Exceptional Leader
You may be wondering
who we are and why we created “How to Lead: Discover
the Leader Within You”. You may also wonder about
our credentials in writing it.
My own background is
as an international consultant, manager and VP/Director
in the software industry. In my first career, I helped
build a successful software company, starting as a trainee
programmer, becoming an expert business process analyst,
project manager and departmental manager, then being
appointed to the board, first as Production VP/Director
and then as Marketing VP/Director.
Frustratingly, to progress
this career, I had to piece together the skills I needed
from countless scattered, fragmented and incomplete
resources, as well as learning them through slow and
painful trial-and-error. That's why I founded MindTools.com:
So that you can quickly, easily and painlessly learn
the "essential skills for an excellent career."
Mind Tools is now the Internet’s most visited
career skills and management training resource, teaching tried and testedcareer skills to more than 10 million visitors
each year.
Through this first career
I was a very effective manager, with good practical
management and communication skills. These were rounded
off with my MBA at London Business School, one of the
world’s top business schools.
My Terrible Admission
But I admit that during
this time, I wasn’t a particularly good
leader. The whole “inspiration and motivation
thing” felt foreign to me. Work was difficult
and hard, and a cold technical exercise. Something really
important, the spirit of the work, was missing, both
for myself… and my teams.
Working with Felix
Brodbeck, Professor of Leadership at
Aston Business School, I
am pleased to say that I found out what was missing.
On one level I learned the technical skills (things
like motivation, building ownership, team selection
and team building) needed for effective team leadership.
But on another, I made the deeper shifts in perception
needed to lead effectively. Once you’ve made these
shifts, everything else looks obvious. Until you have,
leadership seems a mysterious, magical and difficult
thing.
Leading With
Confidence...
Now, as CEO of Mind Tools,
I lead a global team with complete confidence. I have
a strong vision of the future of Mind Tools and how
we can help our customers make the very most of their
careers. I’ve brought together a team of exceptional
people with whom I am proud to work.
Now what's important
here is that there was nothing particularly difficult
about becoming an effective leader: All I needed was
the right information, revealed in the right way.
That’s why, with
Felix and Namita
Anand, an experienced business journalist,
I developed “How to Lead: Discover the Leader
Within You”, Mind Tools’ leadership excellence
system. “How to Lead” fuses Felix’s
world-class leadership knowledge and wisdom with Namita’s
clear and down-to-earth simplicity of expression. I
bring practical corporate management experience and
my business analyst’s stubborn refusal to give
up until all “secrets” have been uncovered
and clearly explained.
More than this, as someone
who wasn't an instinctive leader, I had to learn leadership
from first principles. Because of this, you
can be absolutely confident that our “How to Lead”
system is comprehensive, and that it will teach you,
clearly and in a step-by-step way, everything you need
to be a truly exceptional leader.
Enjoy “How to Lead”.
And welcome to leadership excellence!
Best wishes!

Excellent Career!
You:
a Complete Leader
Imagine yourself at the
end of the course: You have a clear and accurate view of what
you need to do to become an exceptional leader in your industry.
More than this, you know your strengths
and you're starting to capitalize on them.
And, as you use
your new skills, you know that you are automatically well
on your way to becoming a truly respected, effective,
well-balanced and successful leader.
"What
I especially liked about the course is the readability
and organization of it. When I first printed it out
and saw how thick it was, I thought 'this will take
awhile to get through...what did I get myself into?'.
But once I dove in, the sections were very easy to manage
and I looked forward to the next time I could sit down
with it. I did not go through it all at once. Rather,
I set aside time each day to review and reflect on each
section.
"Another plus were
the "Apply this to your life" challenges in
each section. These really made me think about the specifics
of what I just reviewed and how it relates to my work
situation. More times than I'd care to admit, I read
a book or attend a seminar and obtain good ideas I want
to put into action. However, when I get to the office
and the workday begins -- as well as the interruptions
-- the ideas get put to the side and are not implemented.
This "Apply" section adds more accountability.
"I
definitely feel more confident that my leadership skills
have improved after reviewing this program, and I have
every confidence that my skills in this area will improve
as I begin implementing the ideas found in the course."
