Seliger:Das Dschungelbuch der Führung

The book describes a new leadership model - the Leadership Map, which helps leaders navigate the multifaceted and complex nature of their leadership tasks. Ruth Seliger, drawing from her over 20 years of experience as a management trainer and consultant, understands that leadership is more of an organizational phenomenon than a personal one. Therefore, the common prescriptions of what one should or shouldn't do as a leader often fall short and can lead to confusion.

Initially, an introductory section outlines the specific dilemmas and challenges of leadership and establishes a theoretical foundation. Following this, the central dimensions of leadership are presented along the Leadership Map: the practice, the profession, and the process of leading. The author also highlights the latest developments in Positive Leadership.

The book is particularly practical and reader-oriented, much like a good map: numerous case studies, many graphical representations, exercises, and tests create a vivid picture of the complex subject matter.
