About this ebook

“Great leaders are great communicators…If you want to become a top-notch strategic communicator, you’d do well to heed the advice in [this book’s] pages.” —Marshall Goldsmith, New York Times-bestselling author of What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

An Axiom Awards Silver Medal Winner

People often get promoted to leadership positions without knowing how to communicate an inspiring strategic vision to the people who report to them. So they focus on what they know: tactics, not strategy. As a result, they become stuck in micromanagement mode—driving people away instead of drawing them in.

Dianna Booher wants to prevent micromanagement before it happens by providing you with the right leadership communication skills. Grounded in extensive research, this book offers practical guidelines to help professionals think, coach, converse, speak, write, meet, and negotiate strategically to deliver results. In thirty-six brief chapters, Booher shows you how to communicate effectively to audiences up and down the organization so you can fulfill your most essential responsibilities as a leader.
 
“If you’re a micromanager, you need to know it’s not just ineffective—it’s also the most labor-intensive leadership style. When you read Communicate like a Leader, you’ll learn strategic communication skills that will improve your relationship with your people and actually make leading easier.” —Ken Blanchard, New York Times-bestselling coauthor of The New One Minute Manager
