Overview
What exactly does leadership look like? "Leadership in Chaotic Times" is an informative read that takes an in-depth look at how leaders perform and handle responsibilities in business, politics, and their communities. Leaders are often expected to be able to rise to the occasion because of the insight and experience of their pasts. Many of these leaders were pushed even harder in 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic created chaos in nearly every corner of the world. There are many ways to be an effective leader, but this book focuses on a few main principles: You need to focus on building teams. You need to open yourself up to learning. Most importantly, you need to erase any preconceived notions you may have about leadership. Author Jason Fields, a six-term member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, has collected some of his most original and informative thoughts to help you in your leadership journey. The more you learn about your own leadership style, the less overwhelming the chaos of today's world may seem.
