“The Situational Leadership® Model just makes sense. You can’t argue with it. The objective leadership framework looks at the readiness of an individual for a particular task and teaches leaders how to take this approach versus placing value judgments on their workforce. It’s a winning combination.”
—Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 Executive Coach and New York Times bestselling author of The Earned Life, Triggers, and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

“After more than ten years of working closely with The Center for Leadership Studies and applying the Situational Leadership® Model in a global organization, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful this framework can be. This book brings the model to life in a way that is clear, practical, and deeply human. It helps leaders remove the ambiguity of ‘How should I lead right now?’ and replaces it with intentional choices that drive performance and growth.”
—Terry Copley, head of learning and development, Hilti

“No matter if you lead an organization, a department, a team, a nonprofit, or a family, this book is essential reading. It will teach you how to eliminate the guesswork about leadership through a proven, intentional model that empowers you to improve others and yourself to achieve immediate and sustainable results.”
—Marty Davis, director of global field training (retired), Dairy Queen

“The most effective leadership frameworks are those that connect learning to business outcomes. The Situational Leadership® Model has stood the test of time because it does exactly that. Its practical application and adaptability continue to make it relevant for organizations focused on performance. This book brings that connection into clear focus.”
