Description
Are you an Advantage-Maker? If not, odds are you will lose to someone who is. Advantage-Makers are those rare leaders who win more often because they know how to consistently transform challenging situations into the best possible outcomes. The best part is that becoming an Advantage-Maker will not require new resources or any of the other often expensive solutions that have been proposed over the years; it simply requires a shift in how leaders view and think about their company and their competitive environment. The book gets the reader started quickly, showing the benefits and methods to develop the strategic agility required of Advantage-Makers. The book then goes on to present some of the key tactics of Advantage-Makers, including shifting to a commanding vantage point, adaptive stretching, advancing the organization, and a key piece of advice: "If you are in a hole stop digging and start filling it in." It then goes on to present the best ways of changing the way the people around the Advantage-Maker think. After reading this book, readers will be in a different league than the other leaders around them. The best leaders see things others don't: they spot overlooked opportunities, create undreamed of benefits, shift the odds in their favor, and influence breakthrough outcomes. The Advantage-Makers finally reveals how they do it, and how you can, too.
