Right Leader, Right Time: Discover Your Leadership Style for a Winning Career and Company

Choosing the right leader can mean the difference between unbelievable success or abysmal failure.

• When a company is in chaos or decline, it's time to call in a Fixer.
• When a company needs a creative jolt to jump out of stagnation, turn to an Artist.
• When a company needs new markets and big growth, hire a Builder.
• When a company reaches complexity and scale, align with a Strategist.

Which type of leader are you, and, if you're a company owner or board member, which leader does your company require right now?

Through interviews with thousands of executives, the authors identified four distinct leadership styles. Choose the right one, and a company thrives. Make the wrong choice, and a company goes down in flames.

This book helps both leaders and companies up their game by discovering and embracing leadership styles.

• Explore the unique mindset, skillset, approach, and drive associated with Fixers, Artists, Builders, and Strategists (FABS).
