They offer a practical guide for achieving feasible culture transformation by helping leaders see how leading the culture and managing the operations are two sides of the same coin. The book provides guidance and resources that helps leaders decide: (1) what change is feasible; (2) how to set practical incremental targets of change and development; and (3) what are the tools for navigating the turbulent waters of the change process. \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Authors xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One: You, Your Team, and Transformation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Transformation: Can It Be Done? 11\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Organizational Culture: Beliefs That Drive Behavior 33\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Bigger Minds: Developing from the Inside Out 53\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Engagement and Leader Logics 79\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Personal Readiness and Leading Transformation 103\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Headroom: Standing Up for Change 129\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Engaging Your Senior Team 153\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Two: Leadership Culture and Organizational Transformation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 The Culture Development Cycle 181\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Reaching into the Culture 211\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Strategies, Culture, and Readiness: The Pattern in Six Case Studies 235\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Feasibility Maps and Changeability 255\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix A: A Very Brief History of Developmental Theory and Leadership Research 287\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix B: Roots of the Headroom Concept and Related Methods and Tools 290\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix C: Helpful Sources of Studies on Intelligence and Brain Research 294\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary 296\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 299\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 303\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Center for Creative Leadership 317\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJOHN B.

We must either face up to a serious shift in our identities or continue to perish professionally and organizationally at alarming rates. In response to these rapidly changing circumstances, a new kind of organization is emerging: the interdependent-collaborative organization—and all institutions, organizations, and governments are going to need its adaptive, quick-footed, see-around-the-corner capacity. In this book, John McGuire and Gary Rhodes of the renowned Center for Creative Leadership offer a practical guide for achieving feasible culture transformation by helping leaders see how leading the culture and managing the operations are two sides of the same coin.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTransforming Your Leadership Culture\u003c\/i\u003e provides guidance and resources that help leaders decide what change is feasible, how to set practical incremental targets of change and development, and what tools are needed for navigating the turbulent waters of the change process. Executives must do this change work first, say the authors, leading by engagement and example—with senior leaders demonstrating alignment toward the change they expect of others by discovering and navigating a joint future together. Integrating developmental theory with solid research, the authors show how this approach orients organizations toward a connected leadership capability in which everyone in the organization can share.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTransforming Your Leadership Culture\u003c\/i\u003e debunks the common myth that change in organizational culture is beyond the reach of mere mortals.
