Partners In Leadership, LLC, the firm that guides clients in defining Key Results™, shaping Cultural Beliefs® and solving Accountability Gaps, announces Propeller: Accelerating Change by Getting Accountability Right, achieved instant National Bestseller status.
Published on June 25, 2019, by Portfolio, an imprint of Penguin Publishing Group, a division of Penguin Random House, LLC, this is the latest title in Partners In Leadership’s line-up of bestselling business transformation books on accountability, leadership, culture, engagement, and results.
The book Propeller is coauthored by the Partners In Leadership team: Tanner Corbridge, Senior Partner; Jared Jones, Senior Partner; Craig Hickman, Futurist and international bestselling author of 17 books including The Oz Principle; and Tom Smith, cofounder of the firm and coauthor of The Oz Principle. It joins the Partners In Leadership bookshelf on managing culture, accountability and results, including The Oz Principle; Change the Culture, Change the Game; How Did That Happen; Results Revolution; and more.
“Engagement scores have never been worse than they are today,” said Corbridge. “What we propose in Propeller is that we’re solving the wrong problem. Engagement doesn’t address the cause, but accountability does. When you get accountability right, the outcome is higher levels of engagement.”
“Our 2017 Happier at Work survey confirms that people are happiest when they know people follow through and take ownership,” Corbridge said. “This book provides relevant examples and gives leaders tools they need to inspire greatness in their organizations.”
The book Propeller is the next generation of storytelling and examples, building on the classic bestseller The Oz Principle. The book presents a modern take on positive accountability, stating simply: When people take personal ownership of their organization’s priorities and accept responsibility for their own performance, they become more engaged and perform at a higher level.
“You’ve got a rising generation in the workforce that is very different and comes with a whole new skillset to add to organizational complexity,” said Hickman. “This is why we wrote Propeller: to reinforce the simplicity. If you want to accelerate change, the only way to do it is to get positive accountability right.”
The new national bestseller can be found on Amazon and anywhere books are sold.
