Inspiring Leadership
Staying Afloat in Turbulent Times
Jane Cranwell-Ward, Henley Management College
Andrea Bacon, Inspiring Performance
Rosie Mackie, Inspiring Performance
‘…successfully moves the concept of enhancing performance from
round-the-world yacht racing into the business world’
Sir Chay Blyth, CBE BEM
‘This is a powerful book with simple and transparent lessons.’
From the Foreword by Richard Olver, Managing Director, BP
Do you need to know:
• how emotional intelligence impacts on
effective leadership?
• what attributes and skills ensure success as a
business leader today?
• when different leadership and management
styles are needed to maximise team potential?
• why performance and profitability can be
adversely affected by stress, conflict,
communications and an imbalance between
life and work?
To answer the how, what, when and why questions of
effective leadership, the authors of this groundbreaking
book looked to the world of competitive sport. The BT
Global Challenge 2000/1 Round the World Yacht Race
provided a unique case study and an excellent parallel
with today’s business environment. The race was highly
competitive, the environment hostile, at times dangerous,
and conditions were uncertain. Faced with these
pressures, and racing identical yachts, the winners were
the skippers who led their teams most effectively to
achieve and sustain high performance.
The authors of this groundbreaking book were given
unrivalled ‘behind the scenes’ access to The BT Global
Challenge 2000/1 Round the World Yacht Race race and
conducted over 500 interviews with the crew and skippers
from each of the 12 teams before, throughout and after
the race.The authors identify the key attributes and skills
which make effective leaders stand out from the crowd
and demonstrate how emotional intelligence can be
developed to impact on performance.
Combining these new findings with existing theories
of management and leadership, emotional intelligence,
motivation and team dynamics this book provides
managers and MBA students with an in-depth
understanding of what makes a high performing leader
and demonstrates how to sustain competitive advantage
in business.
This unique case study:
• Considers research into personal and management
competencies, emotional intelligence, motivation
and team dynamics
• Provides readers with a greater understanding of
the characteristics of high performing leaders and
teams and the impact of leadership style on team
performance
• Demonstrates how to inspire others, sustain high
performance and competitive advantage and keep
a healthy work-life balance
• Provides advice on operating in a hostile
environment, performing under pressure and
managing conflict and difficult situations

Nicky Hayes, University of Bradford
Creating Organizational Breakthroughs
Charles J. Margerison, Team Management Systems
Charles Margerison first developed his renowned Team
Management Wheel, with Dr Dick McCann, over 10 years ago.
Since then, it has been successfully used as a practical tool by
major commercial and government organizations in more than
forty countries. Packed with case examples and applications, this
new book applies the lessons learned from these organizations
to provide team leaders, training managers and consultants
with a practical guide to team leadership based on the principles
of the Team Management Wheel. The author uses his
background in business and consulting to bring together the
key issues in a concise and readable volume based around the
nine key team leadership skills of advising, innovating,
promoting, developing, organizing, producing, inspecting,
maintaining and linking. The hands-on approach enables
managers to assess their own leadership and problem-solving
skills, enhance team development, build linking and co-ordination
skills across their teams and improve both their individual and
team performance.
• Based on a tried and tested team management system,
which has produced real results in well-known organizations
• Built around nine key leadership competencies
• Emphasises ‘linking’ skills as the basis of effective leadership
• Teaches the language of teamwork to facilitate crossfunctional team effectiveness
This accessible text explores our knowledge about how teams
work, how and why they become effective and how they
influence an organization. By looking at practical examples,
organizational experience and the psychological mechanisms
underlying teams and team management, Nicky Hayes describes
how managers and would-be managers at all levels can improve
teamworking within their organization. In addition to managers
and HR professionals, students of management and occupational
psychology at undergraduate and MBA level will benefit from the
clear and concise coverage of this important topic.
• Explores the psychology underlying good team management
practice
• Provides practical management recommendations
• Examines the relationship between teams and their leaders
and methods of evaluating team performance
• Demonstrates how teams can generate innovation and
organizational change

Strategic Project Management is about managing business
strategy in the most effective way so that it delivers organizational
breakthroughs. This refreshing book sees the authors bring
techniques from the world of business strategy and apply them
to the traditional area of project management. The authors
explain the process of managing complex projects by combining
business analysis and project management techniques in order
for an organization to implement their business strategy and
get the results they desire. Grundy and Brown argue that detailed
strategic thinking is best approached through strategic project
management, not just through business strategy. They show
how to accomplish the initial planning efficiently and how to
implement the strategy effectively, making this an ideal book
for middle and senior managers working on projects at the
strategic level, and also students studying project management.

BP, Prudential Insurance, Champney & Health Form
• Explains how to link strategic projects to business strategy
• Includes step-by-step guide to defining, developing and
evaluating projects
• Provides a checklist of steps to follow and milestones to
pass

What is strategic thinking? What is its real value? What happens
if we don’t do it? How can it advance your career?
In a constantly changing business climate, all managers must
be able to manage change in their organisation.The most difficult
aspect of this process is implementing change because of the
implications for jobs, working relationships, rewards and working
conditions. Managing Change Successfully advocates an active
approach to learning and builds on our knowledge of how adults
learn. This practical book will help students understand how to
gain the co-operation of others in implementing change, and how
to help themselves and others cope with the stress of change.
Central to the learning process is the development of visual
representations of the mental models that influence our thinking.
This book encourages readers to review and modify their models
and assumptions in the light of interactions with fellow managers
and the practical knowledge derived from influential theories.
The answers to these questions can be found in this accessible
book which guides readers through the complex maze of
strategic thinking. This comprehensive book explains in clear
terms exactly why strategy matters and how best to translate
strategic ideas into reality, allowing managers to become strategy
consultants. Written by two experienced strategy consultants,
this easily digestible guide uses examples from contemporary
business to define strategy and show how to make it count.
This is essential reading for any manager who needs to get to
grips with strategy and strategic thinking, and will also be
especially useful reading for MBA students and those
undertaking MBA projects.

including the applications and drawbacks of each strategic
