Are you a creative and new to leadership? You’re not alone. Launch your leadership career and make a difference in only 12 weeks with this practical roadmap. Help is here! This essential resource is full of tried and true principles and practices for creatives like you! This book is broken into four parts that build on each other as you fashion your understanding of creative leadership. Each part includes three weeks of reading, and each week ends with applications for you as a new leader. The four parts are fashioned after Bruce Tuckman’s stages of group development: forming, storming, norming, and performing. These stages are inevitable for all group members to go through in order to become a high performance team. You will find the chapters are intentionally bite-sized so you can consume the meat of a topic and not worry about the bones. You are encouraged to be creative in how you apply the principles and exercises—put your spin on them—but above all, put them into practice. While many of the applications can be completed alone, there is a separate workbook available with templates, worksheets, and added content to spur you on your way to becoming the envy of other new leaders!
