Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Legitimate Leadership, authored by Wendy Lambourne, explores a crucial yet often overlooked goal for employers: fostering employee willingness at work. As a partner at Schuitema Human Excellence Group, Lambourne has collaborated with numerous blue-chip companies globally, including major clients in the UK, USA, and Asia. The book reveals that employee willingness is not merely a result of enhanced work conditions or pay but stems from the personal relationships between leaders and their teams. Genuine willingness emerges when leaders prioritize the growth and well-being of their employees without expecting anything in return. This insight is grounded in seminal research from the South African gold mining industry in the 1980s, further validated by Lambourne and her team's work across various global contexts over the last two decades. The findings hold particular relevance in post-Marikana South Africa, where, despite improvements in pay and working conditions, the quality of relationships between managers and employees has often declined. Rather than being a theoretical examination, the book serves as a practical guide for implementing legitimate leadership through the Care and Growth criteria, offering examples from diverse organizational settings. It aims to assist business owners and managers in effectively leading and transforming both their teams and themselves.
