Description
Picture Yourself a Leader is a problem solver’s guidebook that reveals common human stumbles and offers
a hand to lift you up with engaging, illustrated vignettes of personal and professional experiences.Hone your
leadership skills by recognizing your growth opportunities and be inspired to not just face them but
overcome them while learning from others who have been there and persevered.With decades of leadership
lessons from the field, Elisabeth Swan uses her storytelling and illustration skills to bring her own
missteps—and the stumbles of others—to life. Having shared each adventure with her professional
community, she adds select insights to each lesson, and challenges readers to experiment with their own
habits.The book makes clear that the word leader can mean many things. Leaders aren’t necessarily
associated with a slot on an organizational chart. Leading a life, family, or work team makes you a leader,
and you can lead from anywhere. There are influential problem solvers who may not consider themselves
leaders, yet they are. And there are leaders who don’t see that problem solving is their primary purpose, but
it is.Elisabeth’s collection of insights, challenges and opportunities offers invaluable guidance on how to
work with others more effectively while illuminating how we influence others—knowingly or not. Each
chapter invites the reader to recognize themselves and their potential as leaders regardless of whether it’s in
their personal life or at work. The book provides pathways to help leaders pave better avenues for
themselves, and with each challenge, Elisabeth adds curated advice and experience from leaders, authors,
practitioners, and experts, broadening the conversation by adding alternative viewpoints, lived experience,
and potential solutions.Structured as an informal guide, the micro-lessons offer practical ways to improve
how we think and act, with prompts for readers to consider in bite-sized portions.Unlike other leadership and
problem-solving books, Picture Yourself a Leader offers a welcomed departure from mainstream literature
with its use of illustrations that the brain recognizes tens of thousands of times faster than text. Each story
provides a quick exploration of a recognizable foible, showcasing the reality that we are all flawed human
beings trying to be our best selves, falling into intangible potholes as we work with other people.Expect to
explore topics such as: Why it’s hard to listen.Why giving people credit can shift the culture.How facts and
data don’t move hearts and minds.How culture is a contact sport and you can participate.Why silos are tribes
that you can unite.The book’s origins are rooted in structured problem solving.Drawing on the problemsolving
format of Continuous Improvement, Operational Excellence, Toyota Kata, Lean, and Six Sigma, this
book applies the underpinnings of these methods to solving leadership issues. Regardless of the title, the
approaches are grounded in systematic observation and experimentation to solve complex issues or achieve
objectives when the solution is unknown.Drawing on the problem-solving format makes it easy for readers
to test new behaviors, adjust them, and then hone what works best. It’s a low-risk way for people to get the
most out of themselves. Whether you approach it with structure or not—and regardless of the
label—problem solving is something every human being engages in on some level every day.This book is
for professionals looking to build more innovative cultures. It’s a great companion for individuals looking to
address the people-centric stumbles they’d like to overcome. It’s a great guide to return to—again and
again—as new challenges arise. Beginners, seasoned professionals, and anyone in between can benefit from
this book.
