Research has shown that effective leaders have a clear leadership point of view that they are willing to share with others. Developing a clear leadership point of view starts with knowing your destination. What’s your mission in life? What do you want to accomplish in your lifetime? How do you want others to remember you? Defining your destination is only the beginning. The next step is to reflect on your leadership role models. Who has had a strong impact on your life and what have you learned from them? Some of us began our journeys equipped with excellent role models who were able to guide us through our critical development. Others had to search hard for positive role models and to struggle through some challenging times. Whom did you admire growing up? Whom do you admire today to guide your behavior? Developing your leadership point of view involves identifying your core values and beliefs so that you can make clear, conscious choices as you lead and motivate others. Know your leadership point of view, and let that guide your journey. Good on You, Pricing information and ordering online: www.kenblanchard.com/estore © 2008 The Ken Blanchard Companies.

What does it mean to coach? What is the value of being coached? We spoke with Scott Blanchard, founder of Coaching.com and now Executive Vice President, Client Solutions, and he had this to say. Why are companies everywhere looking to give their managers coaching skills? A. The coaching interaction is a form of self-discovery. Managers are increasingly needing to work with their direct reports, to motivate and partner rather than to command and manage as in the traditional superior-subordinate dynamic. Managers need to develop their people, to bring out the potential in them. Coaching can be a productive way for managers to engage with direct reports to reveal development paths and action plans for maximizing the potential inherent to the individual. How do managers become coaches? A. Master certified coaches (MCCs) require years of formal training, practice, and certification under the supervision of experienced coaches. Some of our master coaches have distilled their key learnings into Coaching Essentials for Leaders. It is a two-day program with pre- and postwork. Managers who incorporate these skill sets into their daily interactions report more confidence, more positive relationships with their direct reports, and often more productive problem solving in difficult work situations. Do you need a “coaching culture” in order for coaching to succeed? A. Coaching can be very successful in one-to-one situations. Individuals have experienced a lot of value by seeking executive coaching either with or without the endorsement of their companies. With that said, teaching whole organizations to adopt coaching is a very powerful sustainability tool combined with any training program. We have seen it work well as a follow-up to Situational Leadership® II training, and it is an effective way to help the formal learning “stick.” Ask about Blanchard’s Coaching Services and our Coaching Essentials for Leaders program. 12 Pricing information and ordering online: www.kenblanchard.com/estore Hardcover Book 17015 Coaching In Organizations Best Coaching Practices from The Ken Blanchard Companies Madeleine Homan and Linda J.

Hardcover Book Audio on CD 15826 15855 For more than 30 years, renowned business consultant and best-selling author Ken Blanchard and legendary NFL football coach Don Shula have motivated teams to peak performance. In their classic, authoritative work on coaching, Everyone’s a Coach, they distill their rich collective experience to its key elements and share their secrets for inspiring others to greatness. Now, back by popular demand, The Little Book of Coaching captures the essence of their classic in this indispensable motivational gem—a gift to their readers and fans. Hardcover Book 14419 Softcover Book 16199 (UK Edition) Formula 2 + 2 Douglas B. Allen and Dwight W. Allen Everyone’s a Coach Don Shula, the most successful coach in NFL history, teams up with Ken Blanchard to share their secrets for inspiring others to greatness. At the heart of their theory is a simple acronym, COACH, that describes the qualities of an effective leader. Don Shula describes how the coaching concept works on the football field, and Ken Blanchard shows us how to apply that concept to leadership situations in the workplace. Even the best managers often view employee coaching and feedback as necessary evils, tasks to be done with little enthusiasm and as rarely as possible. This book provides managers with a simple yet powerful approach to revolutionizing feedback conversations and making them a regular and even welcome part of their duties. It is based on the assertion that feedback is most effective when motivated by a spirit of helpfulness and a sincere desire to help employees succeed.

Self Leadership and The One Minute Manager ® Ken Blanchard, PhD, Susan Fowler, and Laurence Hawkins, PhD This long-awaited follow-up to Leadership and the One Minute Manager illustrates the principles of The Ken Blanchard Companies’ popular training program Situational Self Leadership. Leadership and the One Minute Manager taught managers how to develop their employees by applying the three skills of Situational Leadership® II (SLII®). With Self Leadership and The One Minute Manager, the employees—not just the manager—can determine their own development level. Then, by taking initiative to ask their manager for the appropriate leadership style needed, they ultimately empower themselves, reduce frustration, and dramatically increase productivity. Hardcover Book Softcover Book 16090 16608 (UK Edition) Empowerment: Achieving Peak Performance through Self Leadership Ken Blanchard, PhD, and Susan Fowler Twenty years ago, leadership meant power. Today, the key to leadership is empowerment. While leaders have been practicing the fine art of letting go, the “empowered” have not mastered self leadership—how to grab hold and run with the ball. Empowerment is based on research from one of the most powerful training programs offered by The Ken Blanchard Companies—Situational Self Leadership. Employees learn to accept responsibility for their own growth and progress; they come to terms with their ability to guide themselves in today’s work environment where reaction time and teaming are vital to business success. Booklet 10119 Situational Self Leadership The Situational Self Leadership program gives individual contributors strategies for gaining more satisfaction from their work, and challenging their notion of leadership. When employees discover what motivates them and what builds their confidence, knowledge, and skills, they can make the leap to peak performance. This program is the perfect complement to Situational Leadership® II.

Meyer, and Dick Ruhe Gaining knowledge is only the first step in making a life change, but it’s not enough. Lasting change requires a change in attitude, and in daily behavior. Know Can Do! explores why people have such a hard time applying their knowledge. In other words, why they don’t do what they know they should do. This entertaining fable teaches learners how to adjust their brain’s filtering system and learn up to 100 times more than before; how to ignite creativity and resourcefulness with “Green Light Thinking”; and how to master learning using “spaced repetition.” One of the most common pitfalls of our postmodern world is that we continually learn new skills, rather than developing strategies to master the skills we already know. Know Can Do! shows us how to finally put all this abundant “know-how” into action! Hardcover Book 16669 “Ken Blanchard invented the art of business fables, and he and his co-authors have written another winner. This is a wonderful mix of practicality and entertainment. A quick, must read for anyone with an inkling for going out on their own, and probably just as relevant for readers interested in personal and professional improvement.” –Patrick Lencioni, president, The Table Group; author, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team.

MK0068 Why Organizational Change Efforts Fail “Effective organizational leadership is more about managing the journey of change than announcing the destination.” Among the top 15 reasons why organizational change efforts typically fail are 1 People leading the change think that announcing the change is the same as implementing it. 2 People’s concerns with change are not surfaced or addressed. 3 Those being asked to change are not involved in the planning of the change. 4 Leaders lose focus or fail to prioritize, causing “death by 1,000 initiatives.” 5 Those leading the change aren’t credible— they undercommunicate, give mixed messages, and do not model the behaviors the change requires. —Pat Zigarmi, Cofounder, and Judd Hoekstra, Client Partner Leading People Through Change The Ken Blanchard Companies provides differentiated expertise in the process of implementing change. We do so by providing a model for leading change that addresses the most common reasons that change fails.

We try to eat while we’re washing, then jump into our cars and talk on our cell phones while we’re driving. We go to one meeting after another, perhaps ending the day with a dinner meeting and arriving home late at night, exhausted. We often fall into bed without even enough energy to say good night to the person who might be lying next to us. The next day the alarm goes off and we’re at it again. Pretty soon we’re in a rat race. As Lily Tomlin said, “Even if you win the rat race, you’re still a rat.” The best way to break this pattern is to enter the day slowly through meditation, prayer, reading inspiring thoughts, or taking a quiet walk—all ways to reconnect with our energy source and fully come alive. This is how we recognize that life doesn’t circle around us. To reduce your stress and keep your ego in check, take time for yourself. —Ken © 2008 The Ken Blanchard Companies. All rights reserved.

Ivy League educated and the founder of a multimillion dollar business, Paul was a success in everything but life—and golf. It took only one ProAm afternoon, one short putt, and one airborne putter to send his world flying in a different direction: a mulligan! Golf’s gracious do-over, a mulligan, is the beginning of Paul’s own second chance. Guided by the wisdom and advice of an Old Pro, Paul learns about priorities, about self-confidence, and about playing a good game both on and off the course. Hardcover Book 16672 Ken Blanchard, PhD, and Phil Hodges Where can you find a leadership model that can transform your life? Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges have learned the answer to that question. In Lead Like Jesus, you will discover the four key areas and how they can direct you toward becoming the incredible leader you aim to be. The four areas include: • Heart—What is your motivation as a leader? • Head—What are your beliefs and viewpoints about leadership? • Hands—Do you set clear goals, measure performance, and follow up with those you lead? • Habits—How do you refresh and renew yourself as a leader? Hardcover Book Ken Blanchard, PhD, and James A. Francis Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges have crafted this wonderful compilation of the key principles from their Center for FaithWalk Leadership curriculum. This book is meant to take God out of the spiritual compartment of your private life and give Him free reign in all your daily activities and relationships, especially your leadership roles. First published in 1926 by James A. Francis, this essay about the powerful impact of the life of one humble man—Jesus—has become a classic. After hearing it for the first time years ago at the Crystal Cathedral in Southern California, Ken Blanchard found himself thinking and reflecting on it often. Ken’s thought-provoking introduction and reflections on the essay, accompanied by stunning landscape photographs, will inspire readers to make the most of their own solitary lives. Hardcover Book Hardcover Book 15336 Leadership by the Book Ken Blanchard, PhD, Bill Hybels, and Phil Hodges Lead Like Jesus One Solitary Life 16074 It Takes Less Than One Minute to Suit Up for the Lord Ken Blanchard, PhD Leadership by the Book draws on the model and messages of Jesus as the source of practical lessons in effective leadership. Recounting the story of a teacher, a minister, and a marketplace leader who support one another in their leadership challenges, this extraordinary book offers unexpected and exceptional answers to some of the toughest leadership issues today. Ken Blanchard wanted to give something very special to his family and friends one Christmas. So he sat down and wrote about the most important thing in his life: his journey to God. It Takes Less Than One Minute to Suit Up for the Lord is more than simply an account of a journey to faith. For, as Ken will tell you, the journey is not complete. Sustained growth requires discipline.

MK0068 The Heart of a Leader Ken Blanchard, PhD Expanded and Revised Edition The Heart of a Leader contains unique and introspective commentary by Ken Blanchard on his alltime favorite quotes, coined himself and by other leaders including Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Norman Vincent Peale. The Heart of a Leader Video The Generosity Factor Ken Blanchard, PhD, and S. Truett Cathy The book begins with Ken Blanchard sharing that in school he was deeply motivated by the sayings covering his locker room wall—classics such as, “Quitters never win, and winners never quit.” As a result, he found himself using them frequently to help people remember key points of leadership. An individual who gives something may have to forego a personal pleasure, such as buying a new computer system or season tickets to a favorite sporting event. A family may have to pass up two extra days of vacation. The flip side is that giving has tremendous rewards. These rewards become evident in a variety of dimensions—emotional, relational, financial, and spiritual. Hardcover Book Hardcover Book 16819 A unique format of quotes from the book The Heart of a Leader and set to stunning images and captivating music, this video is a great way to open or close a meeting or training session to motivate and inspire people to lead with character and heart.
