Have you ever arrived on the scene of a house fire to find a frantic woman in the driveway? As a firefighter, you know instinctively what this means: there is a child inside. You immediately enter "the zone," because you know what to do. This is based on your training and experience. The feeling of being "in the zone," is referred to in the field of positive psychology as "the flow."
Multiple studies have shown that, if people have the proper training and experience, they will make better decisions in emerging situations while in a flow-state. How can your organization help your people experience flow more often, thereby improving their decision-making?
This book describes what flow is and what flow-based decision making and flow-based leadership look like. It also details a flow-based leadership model for implementation, based on an extreme, experiential training program in the fire service called Georgia Smoke Diver (GSD). This model consists of:
Leading by example
Communicating purpose
Committing to a stable infrastructure
Binding the group through ritual, knowledge sharing, and collaboration
Honoring individual creativity to promote innovation
Using positive motivation techniques
Facilitating team flow.
GSD's success and longevity is a result of rigorous commitment to this model that helps firefighters stay safe, ensure excellence, and live a life of well-being, both personally and professionally. It is a model any organization can adopt to better the lives of the people within the organization and the lives of the people the organization serves.

Описание: Leadership is easier when you understand the nine instincts that still drive human behaviour, Based on the authors wide experience in large organisations combined with witty true stories of chimps from Taronga Zoo and Gombe, Tanzania, this book explains the psychology behind the human instincts of social behaviour and how leaders can use an understanding of these instincts to make more effective decisions.
Working Toward Excellence identifies eight values for achieving excellence in work and life including hunger, effort, process, quality, consistency, leadership, time, and perseverance. The goal of this book is to add value to others by helping them work toward excellence in any endeavor.
What makes Working Toward Excellence unique and appealing is its focus on excellence, a topic sorely lacking in the marketplace. Working Toward Excellence is small, an easy read, and useful because it contains questions for reflection, lessons, and quotes that can be referred to for inspiration and evaluation.
Without question, there is a great need for Working Toward Excellence today. Wynton Marsalis said, "Maybe the preoccupation with technological progress has overshadowed our concern with human progress." This book, at its essence, is about human progress and developing the values that lead to excellence.
