Leadership tools for today's political, neurotic, time-starved, resource-poor organizations.

A key measure of sailing performance is the degree to which you can sail into the wind-sail to windward. A key measure of leadership performance is the degree to which you can lead organizational change-to sail your organization into the prevailing winds, often on political seas. Windward Leadership is about leading such organizational change.

Competitive sailors talk about "life at 30°," the reference being to the angle of the boat when tacking into the wind. Whether you're leading a company or a team within a company, in order to prosper, organizations of every size, kind, position in the hierarchy, or role in the supply chain, must also learn to operate at 30°, else they are destined for irrelevance. Irrelevant companies go out of business; irrelevant teams within a company are eliminated or outsourced.

You may be an executive at a firm needing to change its course. You may be a middle or first line manager simply trying to improve the performance of your team. Or you may be a project manager dealing with the subtle kind of cultural change that is inherent in every project. Windward Leadership teaches leaders and leadership teams, at all levels, time-tested theories and practical methods to live organizational life at 30°.
