By debunking the cult of managerialism (the notion that smart people can run anything and the emphasis on leadership personality), Goodall reshapes our understanding of bosses and the traits necessary for organizational success. She identifies the key characteristics of expert leaders and provides a real and grossly underappreciated model for career success: \"go deep into a business, work hard, pay attention, and know your stuff.\" Those who run hospitals and healthcare systems, for example, should be physicians with deep clinical expertise, not financiers or people parachuted in from other industries. Those who run school systems and universities need to understand from experience the stress of balancing teaching, research, and student welfare \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCredible \u003c\/i\u003edemonstrates categorically that expertise matters more than ever and that we need our leaders to be experts with a deep, understanding of their organizations from many years spent learning the business and working their way up the ladder. The people who work for them are happier because they feel better understood and the organizations they lead are more successful. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e PublicAffairs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781541702509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2023 pg. 95\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/08\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Amanda Goodall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42870600270005,"sku":"9781541702509","price":25.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_13e3e846-5105-41d4-a648-e50d3b82fb25.jpg?v=1684270330","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/credible-the-power-of-expert-leaders-9781541702509","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
