The tumultuous business climate has created an urgent need for a new type of business leader: one who can land in any environment, under any set of conditions, and find a way to fit in and succeed. Meet the Anywhere Leader - a highly adaptable manager or business owner with a set of key traits that enables him to quickly adjust to changing priorities, new directions, and unfamiliar terrain. He thrives in turbulent times because he's open to new concepts, passionate about progress, and resourceful with the tools and talent that are available. Of course, it's a lot easier to describe that person than to find him or her. That's where this book comes in - it provides an actionable blueprint to help anyone become an Anywhere Leader. Built around a model of three key traits that empower managers to adapt quickly to new circumstances (driven by progress, resourceful, sensationally curious) and written in an easy, accessible voice, the book examines each trait in detail, and shows readers exactly how to acquire and use them. It answers the burning questions of the current economy: How do you do more with less? How do you create initiatives that are inspiring and sustainable? How do you work across corporate cultures, geographical boundaries, and generation gaps? How do you motivate others and leverage relationships? How do you see beyond your traditional role, and take the necessary risks to move forward?
