Synopsis

Typical leadership training never seems to 'move the needle' in terms of creating more effective leaders. That's because the system that supports leadership hasn't changed. To get true improvement in leadership, organizations need to focus on accountability. There must be an asset management system that defines and assigns accountability. Then individual leaders can learn and apply productive leadership.
The author has coined and trademarked the Productive Leadership(TM) System (PLS) which includes:
*A Productive Leadership Policy*The Organizational Reliability Model(TM) (ORM)
*The Productive Leadership Model(TM) (PLM)*A Productive Leadership Development Program

The ORM overtly defines and assigns accountability across each leadership level. The PLM identifies the leadership roles, attributes, skills, sources of power and other aspects that productive leaders must master. The development program creates a leadership pipeline for professional development of current leaders and prospective leaders, and on-boarding the right people for leadership positions.

The author includes a chapter on the human brain to show that leaders and followers are capable of learning throughout their lives, and the science behind creating habits and cultures. The book has several tools and exercises to help reinforce important concepts.

Appendices include details on the Team Effectiveness and Motivation Survey (used in the 2015 Alidade MER/Plant Services Magazine Leadership Survey), an ISO 55000 overview and the Guidance and Execution Model(TM), an example for developing processes and procedures.

Makes the complex subject of leadership easier to understand and pursue

"Tom Moriarty has taken the complex subject of leadership and made it easier to understand and pursue by creating a system that can be followed by anyone who desires to be a leader. From the very beginning of this book, he gives practical examples to drive the points home including defining leadership as -- identifying and solving the right problem. (That is in my opinion the essence of leadership.) As part of the 'Leadership System', he demonstrates how very complicated processes are broken down into easy to understand directions for implementation.

The Productive Leadership System addresses the importance of accountability at all levels along with leadership standards, leadership development, and leadership sustainment through various models that are well described. Recognizing the importance of repetition, to move short-term memory to long-term memory, is key to creating habits essential in leading to the creation of a culture of reliability and empowerment of the workforce.

Tom's personal mission statement, 'helping others to lead full and satisfying lives' is certainly achieved in this book by facilitating those people desiring to advance their own leadership and encourage it in others. I highly recommend this book and consider it to be an essential framework for developing and demonstrating leadership."
