Summary How do you go about improving leadership team performance, strengthening the connections between leaders, and strengthening the leadership team's connections with the rest of the enterprise? This book tells you how. Leadership teams, working together, create the culture and set the tone for the entire organization. When leadership teams fail to connect with employees, their organizations fail. Expensive leadership meetings often accomplish nothing, and clashing leadership styles can disrupt the entire business. What do these issues have in common? Simply this: The way leaders work together is crucial, and enormous organization-wide performance improvements can be achieved when they work together more effectively. Readers will first learn how to define what leadership team excellence looks like, and clarify the organizational impact you want your leadership team to have. Next, they'll learn how to systematically optimize the 5% of time your leaders spend working together-in person, electronically, and through subordinates. This book will help readers magnify their impact, whether they're already at the top of the organization, or aspiring to a future leadership role
