Managers Manage, Leaders Influence, but Target Leaders INSPIRE

ATLANTA - April 5, 2013 - PRLog -- The worst aviation accident in history was ultimately caused by failed leadership. In 1977, two Boeing 747 passenger jets collided on a fog enshrouded runway on the tiny island of Tenerife. 583 people paid with their lives. No matter what industry you're in, the leadership lessons from that mishap can be applied directly to our own lives personally and professionally.

In Target Leadership, Jeff "Odie" Espenship gives you a flight plan that will guide and motivate your leadership team to become Target Leaders. Being a Target Leader takes courage, commitment, and humility. Change is difficult. Staying the same is easy, but where there is a will, there is a way. Where there is no will, there is an excuse. Best practices in workplace leadership and safety involve attention to detail, avoiding complacency, and making sure how it's done around here is exactly the same as how it should be done around here.

As a Target Leader, you will inspire others to achieve excellence personally and professionally. Odie will help you take your organization from cellar to stellar - by setting high expectations, listening to what is NOT being said, and overcoming complacency, "the silent killer.” As a Target Leader, you might not inspire everyone, but you will inspire someone! And that might be the difference between them being on a headline or being on a headstone.

According to E. Morgan LeBLanc, Director of West Coast Operations, Constellation Brands, the world leader in premium wine, “You may not remember everything he says, but you will always remember how he made you feel. This book encourages all of us to be a better person, a better leader, a Target Leader in every aspect of our lives. I highly recommend this book.”

Target Leadership – The book - is now available on his web site for pre-order until its release date of June 1, 2013 for $15.95 (a savings of $9.00).
