Judgment: How Winning Leaders Make Great Calls(ISBN=9781591842934) 下载 pdf 百度网盘 epub 免费 2025 电子版 mobi 在线

　　“With good judgment, little else matters. Without it, nothing

else matters.”

Whether we’re talking about United States presidents, CEOs, Major

League coaches, or wartime generals, leaders are remembered for

their best and worst judgment calls. In the face of ambiguity,

uncertainty, and conflicting demands, the quality of a leader’s

judgment determines the fate of the entire organization. That’s why

judgment is the essence of leadership.

Yet despite its importance, judgment has always been a fairly

murky concept. The leadership literature has been conspicuously

quiet on what, exactly, defines it. Does judgment differ from

common sense or gut instinct? Is it a product of luck? Of smarts?

Or is there a process for making consistently good calls?

Noel Tichy and Warren Bennis have each spent decades studying and

teaching leadership and advising top CEOs such as Jack Welch and

Howard Schultz. Now, in their first collaboration, they offer a

powerful framework for making tough calls when the stakes are high

and the right path is far from obvious. They show how to recognize

the critical moment before a judgment call, when swift and decisive

action is essential, and also how to execute a decision after the

call.

Tichy and Bennis bring their three-dimensional model to life with

interviews with world-class leaders who have thrived or suffered

because of their judgment calls. These stories include:

? Jeff Immelt, CEO of General Electric, whose judgment to grow

through research and development transformed GE into the world’s

premier technology growth company.

? Joel Klein, chancellor of the New York City Department of

Education, who made tough calls about teachers, students, and

parents while turning around a troubled school system.

? Jim McNerney, CEO of Boeing, whose strategic judgment helped

him reinvigorate his company and restore a culture of trust and

respect.

? The late general Wayne Downing, who found an unexpected

opportunity in the midst of crisis when he led the Special

Operations raid to capture Manuel Noriega.

? A. G. Lafley, CEO of Procter & Gamble, who bet $57 billion

to purchase Gillette and reinvent his company.

? Brad Anderson, CEO of Best Buy, who made the call to commit

totally to a customer-centric strategy and led his people to

execute it.

Whether you’re running a small department or a global

corporation, Judgment will give you a framework for evaluating any

situation, making the call, and correcting if necessary during the

execution phase. It will show you how to handle the overlapping

domains of people, strategy, and crisis management. And it will

help you teach your entire team to make the right call more

often.

No organization can afford to neglect this crucial discipline—and

no previous book has ever brought it into such clear focus. --This

text refers to the Hardcover edition.

“With good judgment, little else matters. Without it, nothing else matters.”

Whether we’re talking about United States presidents, CEOs, Major League coaches, or wartime generals, leaders are remembered for their best and worst judgment calls. In the face of ambiguity, uncertainty, and conflicting demands, the quality of a leader’s judgment determines the fate of the entire organization. That’s why judgment is the essence of leadership.
