Story
Kids walk into schools full of wonder and questions. How you, as an educator, respond to students' natural curiosity can help further their own exploration and shape the way they learn today and in the future. The traditional system of education requires students to hold their questions and compliantly stick to the scheduled curriculum. But our job as educators is to provide new and better opportunities for our students. It's time to recognize that compliance doesn't foster innovation, encourage critical thinking, or inspire creativity.

Story
Donors, leaders of nonprofits, and public policy makers usually have the best of intentions to serve society and improve social conditions. But often their solutions fall far short of what they want to accomplish and what is truly needed. Moreover, the answers they propose and fund often produce the opposite of what they want over time. We end up with temporary shelters that increase homelessness, drug busts that increase drug-related crime, or food aid that increases starvation.

Story
Leadership is not about titles, status and power over people. Leaders are people who hold themselves accountable for recognising the potential in people and ideas and developing that potential. This is an audiobook for everyone who is ready to choose courage over comfort, make a difference and lead. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it and work to align authority and accountability.

Publisher's Summary
We live in a challenging, complex, inter-connected and unpredictable world, beset by a range of seemingly insoluble problems. But, says Michael Fullan—an internationally acclaimed authority on organizational change—we have an increasing understanding of how to tackle complex change. This involves developing a new kind of leader: one who recognizes what is needed to bring about deep and lasting changes in living systems at all levels. These leaders need a deep understanding of what motivates us as human beings and how we tap into and influence other people's self-motivation.
In his previous best-selling books The Six Secrets of Change, Leading in a Culture of Change, and Turnaround Leadership, Michael Fullan examined the concepts and processes of change.
In Change Leader he turns his focus to the core practices of leadership that are so vital for leading in today's complex world. He reveals seven core practices for today's leaders, all of which appear to be deceptively simple but actually get to the essence of what differentiates a powerful leader from one who is merely competent:
Fullan argues that powerful leaders have built bedrocks of credibility, have learned how to identify the few things that matter most, and know how to leverage their skills in ways that benefit their entire organization. The author shows leaders how to avoid policies and strategies that focus on shallow and short-term goals and develop leadership skills for long-term success.
With a wealth of illustrative examples from business, education, nonprofit, and government sectors Change Leader provides a much-needed leadership guide for today's turbulent climate.

Intelligent, thought-provoking insights on leaders
In this thought-provoking, insightful audio, the author does an excellent job of combining many elements to convince the listener of how real sustainable change can be achieved. To prove each insight, he presents cases, stories, and studies across private, public, and not-for-profit sectors, including The Four Seasons Hotels and Jamie Oliver???s Food Revolution.
As Fullen points out, change is driven by practice, not theory. To bring about lasting change, you need to take action???observe what works and what doesn???t and adjust accordingly.
The author also explains why certain character traits are necessary for leadership, and discusses these traits from the followers??? perspective. For instance, a leader may establish personal relationships with his followers to motivate them towards his goals. Eventually, the followers will motivate each other through cooperative competition among themselves. How followers react to different leadership characteristics told from the followers??? viewpoint makes this audio unique from other leadership books. I highly recommend it.

I rarely stop listening to a book, hoping it will get better. Not so with this. 42 minutes into it and I just can't waste any more time with it. Not interesting message, and the delivery is about as boring as one can get.
