The One Minute Leader: 52 Weeks to Success
()
About this ebook
There is a difference between a leader and a manager.
I found there is plenty of managerial training
But on Leadership
Too much is said
Too little is read
And leadership is almost dead
Thats why it is important for this book to be read
Thus the birth of the one minute approach to applied leadership.
Voila, The One Minute Leader: 52 Weeks to Success was written:
A dynamic, short, less is more, one liner approach about leadership and organizational success.
If you are to read only one book in order to apply and achieve results immediately after your first use and are looking for a one minute approach to leadership, organizational development, problem solving, and a way to save your organization time and money, The One Minute Leader is the book to read.
Dr. M. L. Nichols
Dr. Michael Nichols is innovative, insightful and informative on leadership and PTSD. He retired from the US Navy as a Lieutenant Commander and from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). His peers and superiors said, "He is twenty years ahead of his time!" At Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, California, he was awarded the Navy Achievement Medal for creating the "most innovative and effective correctional religious program in the United States," which lowered the incident rate by a documented 60 percent. Dr. Nichols graduated number one in his two Navy leadership and management courses, earned a Doctor of Ministry degree from San Francisco Theological Seminary, did post graduate work in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and was awarded Master Practitioner and Trainer of NLP and Time Line Therapy ® Certifications. His published works include: Communicate: through the Windows of the Mind, the “Four Key Elements of a Successful Institutional Intervention,” Playing In the Zone Made Easy, When Time Doesn’t Heal, and The One Minute Leader: 52 Weeks to Success. The One Minute Leader is the development of 32 years of research, experience, finding a need and meeting it. In 1986, while assigned to the Headquarters Staff at Naval Air Station, Point Mugu, California, he thought, “How can I make the greatest contribution to our unit?” So he took it upon himself to add a short unique leadership component to each staff meeting when it was his time to present ... Job Well Done! Exit 20 years ... he is now working for CDCR and attending Executive Staff Meetings. Again he thought, “How can I make the greatest contribution?” He remembered from attending the 2004 California Performance Review Hearings, there was a distinct 28 year void in leadership training. Voila, he found the need and created The One Minute Leader.

The book provides a progression of ideas, thoughts, and concepts a leader needs to know in order to lead and stay on top of things. As in any progression each week builds on the previous week. It is broken into five (5) sections: Section One – The Basis of leadership, Weeks 1-5 - defines what leadership is, the function and basis of being a Leader and the initial skills needed for Leadership; Section Two – The Presuppositions of Leadership, Weeks 6-18 - deals with what a leader needs to know about other people in order to lead them – they are called the presuppositions of leadership; Section Three – Leadership Skills, Weeks 19-29 – deals with the transitional phase from the psychological aspect to the philosophical and inter-personal aspects of leadership; and Section Four – Problem Solving Tools, Models and Formulas, Weeks 30-51 – deals with the management and problem solving aspects of leadership and includes tools, models and formulas; and Section Five – Equipped, Informed and Trained - Week 52 – King of the Mountain puts it all together and tells what it is all about and what to expect as an equipped, informed and trained leader.
Within an hour of fast reading and scanning you should have an over view of the material and know where to spend your time in more detailed thought. The book will then be a ready resource and reference in current or future problem solving. After reading it, you could put it on the shelf until you need it.
What you’re going to get. There is something for everybody. Everybody is going to get some new ideas because there is new material in both the book and Compact Disc (CD) formats. Then the highly educated will get review material. Depending on your level of training, education and experience will dictate whether the rest is new or review material. Everybody is going to get something.
Specifically there are three new unique simple easy to use Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and organizational success formulas: 1) The Threshold Model which gives the specific number of repetitions required to make a change in habit formation in the Central Nervous System (CNS); other unpublished problem solving models, and formulas; including 2) the Lite Speed Model applied as the Stumbling Blocks, Stepping Stones, Success Formula; and 3) the PIC–A-Program Formula.
These formulas and models are easy to use and quickly break applied leadership, management, and problem solving into their lowest common denominators. After reading these most people may apply them immediately.
The purpose of the book is designed to make your life as a leader easier. If you could make your life easier and create a great day today, each day and every day would you?
