Many executives are disappointed with the way their top management team functions, and ask themselves, “Why don't executives simply mind their own domain of responsibility?” “Why are so many decisions made on the sidelines, without any chance for discussion?” The authors show traditional leadership precepts are behind many of the ills suffered by these teams. Based on this analysis, they describe an alternative approach involving shared leadership, and offer many tips on how to successfully negotiate this difficult but promising path.
