The Tripping Point in Leadership is written as a common-sense guide to enhanced leadership quality. Its purpose is to serve as a wake up call for aspiring and existing leaders in all walks of life. Leaders often identify the people problems within their organizations with common “tags,” such as lack of productivity, burnout, indecisiveness, poor time management, lack of creativity, lack of motivation, etc. Those leaders, however, usually are not aware of the fact that those “tags” are only symptoms. Focusing on symptoms exclusively often leads an organization on a wild goose chase, fixing symptoms but never solving the real problem. The word “apathy” is an unfriendly and threatening word to most people, and that is probably the reason you never hear leaders use the word to describe problems within their organizations. Instead, you hear the listing of symptoms that may sound more professional, academic, clinical, or forgiving. Effective leaders, however, must focus on the real problem, and not just the symptoms. David Byrd, president of Leadership Management®, Inc., in his new book, The Tripping Point in Leadership - Overcoming Organizational Apathy, shares what leaders must do to overcome the natural forces of apathy that affect every organization. Byrd defines apathy as a natural, human instinct, and as a natural instinct, how it affects the organization through its common denominator… people. David was recently interviewed on a Business Podcast.
