Prince, COO of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, unites with Figliuolo, a consultant in leadership development, in this plain-language guide for all who lead teams. They present an easy-to-use leadership matrix for understanding and leading the multi-generational workforce and offer specific guidelines on how to engage, motivate, and lead different types of personalities at work, from rising stars to squeaky wheels, slacker detractors, and square pegs. They explain how to apply the leadership matrix to team situations and how to use the matrix in talent search and performance appraisals. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
