Features: "This book is probably the only worthwhile masterpiece in the leadership literature, as Urich, Zenger, and Smith have synthesized the various complex discussions in the field and powerfully argued that effective leadership is a product of both 'leadership traits' and performance." The Performance-Driven Leader is a culmination of leadership theory and practice from Western enterprises, but it also provides simple and actionable guidance and action guides for Chinese entrepreneurs, leaders, and senior managers with an Eastern cultural background. This book truly enables leaders at all levels to grasp the essence of leadership, the true meaning of leadership art, and the essence of leadership culture. The book has the following characteristics, which is also the reason why it has become a classic work on how to successfully create outstanding leadership performance. First is authority. This book is one of the most representative new works of Dave Ulrich, a globally ranked management master and professor at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, published by Harvard Business School Press. Second is innovation. This book is the first in the world to truly and effectively link leadership with performance. Based on profound and incisive analysis and argumentation, it has successfully achieved and perfected both theoretical and practical innovation in leadership. Third is practicality. This book is not only a classic textbook and guide for leadership training in Western enterprise management but should also make valuable and meaningful contributions to the comprehensive improvement of the quality of Chinese business leaders today.
