ISBN 007165014

As successful consultants teaching leadership to women in the workforce, Angie Morgan and Courtney Lynch have seen that women face particular challenges in feeling comfortable at work—and making their environment work for them. Leading from the Front draws from the authors’ combined 18 years of training in the Marine Corps to teach women how to take control of their environments—both professionally and personally. They reveal 10 key practices that turn women into leaders and improve their decision making, focus, and performance.

• Set an example: Everything you do reflects the type of person you are
• Think fast: Timeliness is often more important than accuracy
• No excuses: Accept responsibility before you place blame
• Be a caretaker first: Take care of and support those you lead
• Don’t overreact: Learn to contemplate a situation before determining the best course of action
• Avoid drama: Aviate, navigate, and communicate to deal with crisis
• Believe you can: Courage + Perseverance + Initiative + Integrity = Success
• No tears: Don’t cry over anything that can’t or won’t cry over you
• No apologies: Say only you’re sorry when you’re at fault
• Be you: Lead as you are and use your unique strengths
