Fundamentals of Business Leadership: Knowing, Doing, Becoming

Brad Winn, PhD Bret Crane, PhD Scott Hammond, PhD

This resource prepares students to lead in any setting, from the workplace to their families and communities, by showing that leadership isn't reserved for executives and can be learned. Built on a "Know, Do, Be" learning model and the LEAD framework, it guides students through self-awareness, authenticity and integrity, purpose, a growth mindset, empathy, communication, teamwork, systems thinking, ethics, influence, and cross-cultural awareness. Each chapter combines reflection with practical application, so students graduate with a clear sense of who they are as leaders and the skills to make a positive difference wherever they lead.
