About the Design of this Book In support of the information contained herein, various references are provided, reflecting the extensiveness of the scholarly research and topic review. Thus, you will observe frequent citations and source identifiers in the following form: (author, year, page). Additionally, as key business and technical concepts are discussedsuch as capital budgeting, analytical marketing, and statistical applicationstutorial information will be provided to assure reader comprehension. And finally, key leadership insights are offered to solidify understanding of character execution of the presented strategies and theory. Author and journalist Ernest Hemingway wrote: Show the readers everything, tell them nothing. Thus, you will note I have liberally used diagrams, charts, and graphs as my intent is to take advantage of Hemingways sentiments to aid you in comprehending the concepts and strategies presented. The first chapter focuses on leadership definitions, theories, and principles. Building on this foundation, discussion of a key piece of corporate and organizational infrastructure (the performance appraisal) follows, which is linked to the theory presented. An overview of corporate structure follows, with emphasis on corporate initiation, implementation, and operation. You are then introduced to a simulated corporation, Summit Consumables Incorporated. Next comes a systematized discussion of inputs, processing, and outputs (IPO). Then I introduce my leadership improvement model (the 5C LIM). This model is applied by a simulation that demonstrates how to handle corporate and business scenarios seen in the examples of six Summit Consumables employees as they respond to performance evaluation results. Bolstered by previously reviewed leadership strategies, the book then offers leadership-oriented approachespurpose, preparation, perception, persuasion, and power (the 5 Ps)for development and delivery of individual presentations, leveraging the previously introduced Summit Consumables employees. The final chapter demonstrates how stages of the 5C LIM may be used as a stand-alone model to circumvent issues and opportunities occurring in the typical world of leaders.
As the architect of a corporate leadership development program, he has paved the way for many aspiring and emerging leaders to accelerate their growth and development. He has incorporated that same strategic and visionary thinking into the design and delivery of all offered products and services including published books, seminars, confidential career advisement and speaking engagements. Rising from blue-collar worker to corporate executive, Dr. Calloway fully understands and openly shares what it takes to get to the next level. Book Review: How is leadership manifested? In this memoir and motivational book, Dr. Calloway outlines a program for aspiring leaders that answers this question. For those looking to improve and develop skills and step up the leadership ladder the strength of this book supports the notion that regardless of the circumstances of early life, in Dr. Calloways case poverty, anyone with the right drive and commitment can rise above difficulties and be all that they can be. I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone! ~ Pacific Book Review From Poverty to Corporate Executive is an outstanding book that combines real life experience with classical, business, and technical theories. This book is synonymous with a great motivation story which inspires the reader it is clear that family, friends and the entire community are great sources of support in achieving ones purpose in life. [This book] was written for people in learning institutions and the working class. The book addresses why the mind behaves in a particular way during hard times and how one should utilize his or her brain to make a difference in future. The books main point is for one to take charge of life, finding people and opportunities that support their talents and dreams. ~Hollywood Book Reviews The wise counsel offered by Jesse Calloway throughout [this book] should provide a solid platform for achieving success and becoming a leader. The first section of his book is autobiographical and candidly shares memories from his precarious childhood, including living in poverty with five siblings, the death of a parent, and a home life under the care of an aunt and uncle who had six children of their own. Rather than overwhelming or defeating Calloway, however, these challenges steeled him One of the most useful chapters, Lessons Learned and Lessons Shared, is a potpourri of topics, including mentors, bosses, peers, customers, collaboration, feedback, first impressions, second chances, and telling the truth [it] reads very much as if Calloway is providing one-on-one coaching to the reader. ~Foreword Clarion
Do engineers have what it takes to move up the economic food chain—to lead? If not, why not? If gaps exist, how can they be closed? What is the difference between an engineer leading engineers versus leading non-engineers? How, if at all, does engineering education influence perceived leadership style? How exactly does one characterize leadership style, and how is it measured? In a book designed and written specifically for engineers and predicated largely on his leadership-oriented doctoral dissertation in pursuit of the PhD in engineering management, Dr. Calloway addresses each of these questions and more!
