<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This is a guide to positive climate, positive relationships, positive communication, and positive meaning and how to apply each of them in work.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>NEW EDITION, REVISED AND UPDATED <p/> Beyond Success <p/> Positive Leadership shows how to reach beyond ordinary success to achieve extraordinary effectiveness, spectacular results, and what Kim Cameron calls "positively deviant performance"--performance far above the norm. Citing a wide range of research in organizational behavior, medical science, and psychology as well as real-world examples, Cameron shows that to achieve exceptional success, leaders must emphasize strengths rather than simply focus on weaknesses; foster virtuous actions such as compassion, gratitude, and forgiveness; encourage contribution goals in addition to achievement goals; and enable meaningfulness in work. In this concise, inspiring, and practical guide, Cameron describes four positive leadership strategies, lays out a proven process for implementing them, and includes a self-assessment instrument. This second edition has been updated throughout with new research findings and new ideas for implementing positive leadership.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Praise for the First Edition <p/>"This accessible and uplifting book translates years of social science research into actionable guidelines for leaders who wish to make a positive difference in the world."<br><b>--Amy C.
