The Effective Leader’s Greatest Secret: Service + Credibility + Influence via Persuasion = Effectiveness
Credibility is a perceived level of trust and confidence granted or lost every day from those with whom you serve as a result of how well you apply the Conditions for Effectiveness. You cannot control other people, but you can influence them, but only if you have credibility.
Credibility is the currency of influence and influence through persuasion is the key to effectiveness.
Effective leaders set and continually apply these Conditions for Effectiveness by:
Serving their team members (See Chapter 2)
Treating everyone with dignity, respect, and kindness (See Chapter 3)
Consistently producing excellent results by supporting team goals (See Chapter 4)
How many of these actions are you already doing? Is there room for improvement?
If you continually apply the Conditions for Effectiveness, you can expect to have:
Won the credibility needed to influence the behavior of others through persuasion
Created cohesive teams that believed in teamwork and problem solving via consensus
Fostered a healthy and supportive working environment where members serve each other
Attained significant PCF/BOE value added that consistently produced excellent results
Attracted the best and brightest people that fulfilled and sustained team goals/purpose/vision
Sponsored the way to greater Innovation, Invention, Improvement, and Creativity (I3C)
Maximized the productivity of products & services by enhancing effectiveness, efficiency, and consistency
Maximized sustainability by training enough effective leaders and followers for the future
My effective leaders weren’t perfect. We overlooked their imperfections because we knew they cared about us. They took care of us and we could feel it.
If you're looking for a better way to enhance your professional career, this is the book for you. Stop wishing you had a better career and do something about it, today!
Edward J. Murphy
Ed Murphy considers himself lucky. From age 7, he knew what he wanted to be when he grew up. He wanted to be a Soldier. In 1964, four days after graduating from High School, he joined the US Army and found himself in Basic Training and Advanced Infantry Training at Fort Dix, New Jersey.A year later, Ed became a Cadet at the United States Military Academy at West Point. In 1970, he graduated as a 2d Lieutenant headed to Airborne and Ranger School, then off to Viet Nam for a year.In 1978, Ed returned to West Point to teach Military Science and earned a Master’s Degree from Long Island University in night school. His greatest achievement during his time in the military was helping 1400 soldiers begin their college education during his last two years in West Germany as a Battalion Commander. He wanted to give his soldiers something of real value - something that no one could ever take away. After 23 years as a US Army Officer, from Viet Nam to Desert Storm, he retired in 1993.Ed then decided, with a little help from Anthony Robbins, that his second career would be as an Executive Coach. For the next 21 years, he worked for four of the largest consulting, outplacement and e-cruiting companies in America from Seattle, San Diego, to Kansas City.In 2012, Ed retired a second time and decided to document everything he learned from those he admired and willingly followed over his 50+ years in both the US Military as an Army Officer and Corporate America as an Executive Coach.Since many of them aren’t alive today to tell their stories, he wanted to pay tribute to them before their lessons were lost forever. Thanks to them, he’s collected thousands of small and simple things (tactics, techniques, and tools) that have helped and will continue to help future generations to maximize their true career potential by becoming more effective at work and in life.In 2014, Ed created TheCAREERMaker.com, a site dedicated to providing the best-in-class wisdom, knowledge, and advice on how to maximize your true career potential by teaching three simple things; how to become absolutely essential and irreplaceable to any leader, how to become more effective tomorrow than you are today, and how to find and build the career you were meant to have. His greatest joy comes from helping others avoid or overcome the problems he’s faced during his lifetime.In 2016, with the help of two partners and co-authors Lee O. Lacy and Jason Bowne, he finally completed The Effectiveness Guide, which teaches how to become more effective tomorrow than you are today by consistently producing excellent results; treating others with dignity, respect, and kindness; and helping others to do the same.Today, Ed considers himself fortunate to get to live in Phoenix, AZ, where he enjoys writing, eating sushi, genealogy, and watching movies with family, friends, and his best friend and wife, Diana.
