Follow on Google News | Author Dr. Charles S. Ricks examines Healthcare Management in Confessions: The Soul of LeadershipOne of the most refreshing books on organizational improvement to be written in a long time. The reader will follow in the footsteps of the author through multiple organizations during a thirty-year journey.
“The biggest challenge is finding true leaders who can inspire an organization,” Although Confessions lays out principles and practices that are theoretically straightforward, taking the theory and putting it into practice is truly the challenge. “The individuals who currently work with me are asked to review my principles of leadership as outlined in my books and let me know if there is any principle I espouse that I am not personally following,” he told the interviewer. Ricks went on to say, “To me the most common failing is the ability to truly work with people and understand how to motivate them to be successful. A true manager’s success is a by-product of those he or she leads. As Ronald Reagan is supposed to have said, “One can accomplish anything they wish so long as they don’t care who gets the credit.” With Confessions, Dr. Ricks covers the topic so well and with such good cheer, it’s hard to imagine what he could add with future editions without upsetting the balance of sense and charm he achieves here. In any case, students of leadership or business would do well to study the forthright lessons Dr. Ricks lays out in his book. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Charles S.
