About the Book

Whether you’ve been promoted at work, want a higher-paying position or need help navigating office politics, you’re going to need leadership skills.
Eva C. Doyle, a longtime trainer who has worked for a bank, a software company, and the Department of Defense, believes anyone can cultivate these skills. In this book on developing leadership skills, you’ll learn how to:
• navigate your internal transition from expert to leader;
• get to know and introduce yourself to your team;
• learn to become comfortable with your authority; and
• offer praise and negative criticism.
You’ll also learn how to find allies and mentors in the workplace, help other employees develop leadership skills, encourage co-workers to act like teammates, and set the right tone every single day.
You may have never thought of becoming a leader, but if you’ve been asked to become one or think it’s time to take on a new role, you need to take proactive steps to succeed. Get the practical guidance you need with The Reluctant Leader.
