The book is based on the premise that skilled public health leaders consider people their most valuable resource and are prepared to lead those people through a wide variety of situations. Acknowledging that effective leadership cannot rely on a one-size-fits-all approach, the authors challenge readers to try out a number of leadership models and theories, determine which are the best fit for their public health practice, and apply the key principles in their day-to-day work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book matches its detailed discussion of leadership theory with examples and cases specific to the field of public health. Written primarily for graduate-level public health students, it is also useful for public health leadership institutes and public health practitioners looking to develop their leadership skills.

Exceptional leaders use  competencies—a set of professional and personal skills, knowledge, values, and  traits that guide a leader’s performance. In an era of change and uncertainty in  healthcare, it is crucial that leaders learn not only how to be exceptional, but  also what makes an exceptional leader. In this second edition of their best-selling  book, the authors detail 16 competencies grouped in four cornerstone categories:  Well-Cultivated Self-Awareness, Compelling Vision, A Real Way With People,  and Masterful Execution. Each of the 16 competencies is explored in its own  chapter to define the competency, provide examples and advice, and explain the  common skill deficits that prevent its mastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew to this edition:  A feature case study at the beginning of the book and a supportive vignette  within each competency chapter to provide practical and real-world  application to each competency  Two minicases with discussion questions at the end of each competency  chapter for further consideration and self-reflection  Six new chapters that demonstrate how to apply the book’s concepts at both  the individual and organizational levels  A new chapter on physician leadership that incorporates findings from  interviews with industry leaders and provides a helpful road map for those  transitioning into the physician executive role\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough a clear and focused approach based on current research, this book provides  a solid understanding of the tools needed by great leaders.
