Robert L. Short's Lead Forward! Leadership Skills for Managers...

As an Agile executive leadership coach my clients are often dropped into a leadership role with no training on how to make the transition. This book provides the basic foundation required to build upon. If you don’t know this material (and most don’t) becoming a true leader will be a huge challenge. Do yourself a favor, read this book and then build from there.

Robert L. Short's Lead Forward! Leadership Skills for Managers...

This one really hit the mark for me. It’s one of those rare leadership books that doesn’t just rehash old advice—it breaks things down into steps you can actually follow, even in high-pressure environments. I appreciated how practical it was; I found myself pausing to jot down strategies and ideas to try with my team right away. You can tell it’s written with a lot of firsthand insight into the realities managers face.
