Lead sideways in messy modern workplaces

This is a smart pick if you often need buy-in from peers or bosses without formal authority. It feels practical rather than preachy, showing how to influence conversations, shape shared goals, and move groups forward. If you liked the clear usefulness of Getting to Yes, this has that same grounded, results-focused energy for everyday work.

Description

Let's face it. In this chaotic world of teams, matrix management, and horizontal organizations, it's tougher than ever to get things done. How do you lead when you're not the one in charge? How can you be effective when joint action is needed? You need an edge to reach solutions and work effectively with others. Getting It Done is your edge. Co-written by Roger Fisher, an acknowledged authority on negotiation, Getting It Done is the book to help you make things happen when you're not the boss. Fisher is the man who redefined the way the world negotiates with his megabestseller Getting to Yes. Now he has teamed up with management consultant Alan Sharp to move beyond negotiation and give us the definitive book on collaboration. Introducing the technique of lateral leadership, Fisher and Sharp take collaboration to the next level and offer surefire ways to help anyone get better results from coworkers. Gleaned from their decades of experience as negotiators, mediators, and consultants to organizations, Getting It Done gives you the practical tools you need to influence your peers and bosses and get the results you seek. Getting It Done explains how you can best help a group formulate a clear vision of the results they want, suggest a course of action that you can all implement, and learn from past experiences. It describes how to ask questions effectively, offer ideas that will be heard, and influence the actions of others through your own behavior. The invaluable skills of lateral leadership enable you to achieve the ultimate goal—successful collaboration.
