In the liberated organization, innovation, enterprise and commitment are as necessary on the front-line as they are in the executive suite. This is why modern organizations need empowerment. The old certainties about how to manage have passed their sell-by date. Bureaucratic management and "control by command" no longer work in today's more demanding conditions. Empowerment is a fundamental challenge to the ways people currently organize at work. It means that everyone is a leader sometime, and that traditional "leaders" do not always exercise that role. This approach releases the full potential of every individual within an organization, and only those organizations which liberate themselves by empowering their members will survive into the 21st century. This practical book is about empowering leadership for everyone from the front-line worker to the chief executive. It goes into and then beyond the philosophy, knowledge and strategies which underpin empowerment, and includes numerous examples and case studies of the practical leadership styles this new approach involves. It offers a practical programme which: enables each individual to reach and use his or her full potential; and liberates the way organizations operate, so that individuals and teams are empowered to participate in and own decisions. The book explains the main aspects of empowering leadership for readers and their team, and contains a "tool-kit" of the core skills of empowerment. It concludes by putting empowrement into perspective with positive advice on how to make the process, not always an easy one, more enjoyable.
