I believe in you.
This book is proof of the power of those wordsspoken in many ways by the leaders, colleagues, and loved ones in my life. Its time to spotlight those speakers.
The leaders of the Poynter InstitutePresident Karen Dunlap, past President Jim Naughton, Dean Stephen Buckley, Senior Scholar Roy Peter Clark (writing guru extraordinaire), and Managing Director Butch Ward (my peerless, fearless teaching partner) have been nonstop sources of positive feedback. As the Director of Poynter Online, Julie Moos was my co-conspirator in the creation of the management columns and iTunes U podcasts that inspired this book. She is as gifted and generous an editor as she is a friend. Other Poynter colleagues helped with their talents and encouraged with their hearts. My sincere thanks to Ellyn Angelotti, Jacqui Banaszynski, Jessica Blais, Cathy Campbell, Aly Coln, Rick Edmonds, Gregory Favre, Howard Finberg and the NewsU crew, Kenny Irby, Maria Jaimes, Kelly McBride, Regina McCombs, Bill Mitchell, Steve Myers, Paul Pohlman, Sara Quinn, David Shedden, Bob Steele, Mallary Tenore, Al Tompkins, Wendy Wallace, and Keith Woods for their work and their words. They and all my Poynter colleagues share a passion for excellence, not only in journalism that informs a democracy, but also in the practice and promise of leadership.
Im grateful to my gracious Center Street editor, Kate Hartson, who knows the magic sentence every author needs to stay motivatedYoure a really good writerand to literary agents Jane Dystel and Miriam Goderich for bringing us together.
I am indebted to the many managers who have listened, learned, and laughed with me in seminars, workshops, and workplacesand who reach out when they have successes to share or need a coaching ear. My special thanks to those unnamed but invaluable bosses whose 360-degree feedback excerpts in this book provided a clear window into the joys and challenges of leadership.
