Find Your Path to Exceptional Leadership
Some people are born to lead, and others work hard to become extraordinary. Either way, today’s leaders need to be agile and prepared for change, according to Carson F. Dye, FACHE, co-author of Exceptional Leadership: 16 Critical Competencies for Healthcare Executives, Third Edition.
The book presents leadership from the viewpoint of specific behaviors. “It is much more logical to describe the behavior of highly effective leaders versus explaining a theory or construct,” says Dye.
In the newest edition, Dye and Andrew N. Garman, PsyD, reflect on contemporary issues and the latest research on leadership. “At the time of the first edition of the book, the idea of using leadership competencies had just surfaced in the healthcare field,” Dye says—and many models had almost 100 competencies.
Then and now, Exceptional Leadership’s focus on the critical few behaviors of highly effective leaders resonates with physicians learning leadership: well-cultivated self-awareness, compelling vision, a way with people and masterful execution.
“Physicians, and all clinicians for that matter, are typically highly visual individuals,” he says. “As such, they relate well to the observable behaviors of leaders.” Outstanding leaders don’t wait for opportunities. Learn more with Exceptional Leadership.

The Keys to Unlocking Performance Excellence
Authors Michael E. Frisina, PhD, and Robert Frisina use the latest neuroscience research to elaborate on how a positive connection between staff and leaders builds trust, instills hope and affects employees’ brain function in a way that leads to overall team success. The authors provide a modern and science-based approach to performance management and a leadership development style that fits any organization, regardless of type or size.
In chapter six, titled “Leadership Behaviors That Drive Engagement,” the authors assert that successful leaders have the ability to match their behavior to unpredictable and changing (contextual) situations. They debunk five fundamental myths of effective leadership, outline a three-tiered framework and explain the components to effective leadership. The chapter concludes by uncovering the “secret sauce” of high-performing teams and provides other key takeaways.
Chapter six is available to all ACHE members this month at no cost. We hope you enjoy August’s Membership Perk, and we thank you for being a part of the ACHE community.
