About the Book

We are all leaders! It does not matter who you are or what you do for a living. Leadership capability is within us all. This book, Leadership Is...(Dot, Dot, Dot), illustrates through stories and personal experiences that we all display leadership traits throughout our lives but often do not appreciate or even recognize them as such. It is a reminder to experienced business managers and executives of the leadership basics that have made them successful; but it also serves as a revelation for others that they already possess leadership skills and are and can be leaders in their own right. It dispels some false beliefs of leadership by demonstrating in entertaining and informative stories that: -A leader is not a person who does something, but rather is someone who inspires others to achieve greater heights. A leader recognizes that the only person who can make a change in your life is you, and then provides the environment and the encouragement for you to take action. Leadership is not the result, it is the behavior and actions one takes. -Leadership is not about budgets, programs implemented, the wealth you have or the records you break. Leadership comes from inside; it is all about you - your ability and desire to recognize, respond to and overcome the challenges that you face every day of your life. Heroes are not those individuals who have no fear; they are the ones that act in spite of their fear. The same can be said of leaders. -Leadership is highly complex; there is no 'silver bullet' or 'best practices' or even a set of competencies or behaviors that one can follow to earn the title of leader. There is no checklist one can follow to become a great leader. It is situation dependent. The skills that make you a great leader in one setting may be irrelevant, or even detrimental, in another. -There is no light switch, no event, no bit of knowledge that turns someone into a leader. It is in the application of the knowledge you possess, the values that you hold, and the person that you are, that make you a leader. While we all may be born with leadership capabilities, these aptitudes must be recognized and developed to make them effective. The answer to the question, 'Are leaders born or made?' is yes! -The title of leader is transient. It is the accumulation of behaviors and actions that makes a person a true or great leader. One improper behavior, even just the perception of impropriety, can destroy all the 'good' you have accomplished. Leaders earn their title every minute of every day. A leader simply is someone who makes a difference in someone's life. A leader does this by making others aware of the possibilities that exist and inspiring them to achieve them. This book is intended to do just that for you!
About the Author: As Chief Learning Officer of the world's largest express transportation company, Bob Bennett understands the imperative role employees and leaders play in the strategic success of a company. Prior to retirement, his responsibilities included defining the role of Human Resources for FedEx Express and providing strategic and tactical direction for the development and execution of programs for continuous learning and growth for its 150,000 employees in over 220 countries and territories world-wide. With an engineering background and extensive experience in global operations, Bob has a real world perspective and deep respect for the effect employees and corporate culture have on a company's bottom line and the responsibilities of management in this area. Under his leadership, FedEx nurtured a culture of People-Service-Profit, a belief that if you take care of your people, they will provide outstanding service and profits will follow. He has carried his passion for leadership and culture to Achieve-LLC, his new company dedicated to leadership development and organizational effectiveness. Through Bob's guidance, FedEx Express created stronger employee focus through employee loyalty surveys, prescriptive coaching, market-based management programs and enhanced HR metrics. During his tenure, FedEx consistently ranked on Fortunate Magazine's list of the "World's Most Admired Companies' and was ranked 5th on the Great Place to Work Institute's 2011 list of the World's Best Multinational Workplaces. A passionate advocate for expanding the role of HR from "bricklayer to architect," especially in the area of leadership development, Bob was instrumental in establishing the FedEx talent management program to assess high performance and high potential employees. He also integrated strategic workforce planning with employee development, talent management, talent review, performance management and succession planning, creating a clear roadmap to business success through human capital management. A native New Yorker, Bob earned bachelor's and master's degrees in Industrial Engineering from Cornell University and a master's degree in business administration from Bernard Baruch College at the City University of New York. He is a keynote speaker, featured in many industry articles, and an author. Bob serves on many community boards. Bob believes in learning from each other, and welcomes your stories, comments and feedback at bob@achieve-llc.com or on Twitter at @bob_achieve.
