FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Houston, Texas, United States Many talented professionals step into leadership roles armed with expertise but starved of guidance. They discover that no one ever taught them the fundamentals of how to lead. A new book by Dr. Jeffrey Katz aims to fill this critical gap. “Leadership: A List of Guiding Principles” distills a lifetime of executive experience into a practical and accessible guide for aspiring and current leaders alike.
The book moves beyond theoretical models to offer a grounded collection of insights. Dr. Katz structures the content around essential attributes like Energy, Honesty, and Trust. He explores the subtle but crucial difference between being dishonest and simply failing to keep your word. He champions the often-overlooked power of a leader’s genuine energy to inspire teams. Each principle comes to life with relatable anecdotes and clear, actionable advice.
At its core, the book delivers a powerful message. Effective leadership is not a mysterious talent reserved for a few. It is a learnable skill built on a foundation of integrity, consistency, and a genuine desire to empower others. Dr. Katz argues that the most successful leaders create environments of trust and safety where team members can excel and contribute their best ideas.
The target audience for this work is broad. It serves as an essential primer for new managers, team leads, and anyone recently promoted into a position of responsibility. Seasoned leaders will also find valuable perspectives to refine their approach and re-engage with the fundamentals. Professionals in healthcare, where Dr. Katz built his career, will find it particularly resonant, but its lessons apply universally across all industries.
Dr. Katz writes with the clear, confident voice of a seasoned mentor. His style is direct and conversational, avoiding management jargon in favor of plain truths. Readers will feel as though they are receiving candid advice from a trusted senior colleague who has navigated the same challenges they face. The book feels less like a lecture and more like a series of critical conversations.
“Leadership: A List of Guiding Principles” is available for purchase in paperback and ebook formats on Amazon, at all major online bookstores, and through major retailers.
