Listen "Dianne Crampton - Becoming TIGERS"
Episode Synopsis
Interview by Chicke Fitzgerald of the Game Changer Network, showcased on C-Suite Network
When is the last time you cried while reading a business book? Be warned, Dianne Crampton’s fourth published work, Becoming TIGERS – Leading Your Team to Success, is not your father’s business book. In this emotionally engaging novel, Crampton uses the best traditions of learning by parable to take us on a transformative journey through the jungle of myths, mistakes, and mastery of leadership. Apply the lessons from this engaging novel and you’ll improve your leadership skills for the rest of your life.
Derek, a young manager and project team leader, is a mess. He has been given an ultimatum: improve his leadership behavior or find employment elsewhere. Multiple employees quit because of him and provided a laundry list of reasons why Derek is a terrible boss. Now, Derek has only the weekend to self-reflect and craft a plan to save his job. He digs deep to muster the energy to help his third-grade daughter with a weekend reading assignment about a tiger lord on the brink of losing his tribe when faced with a life-threatening event. The parallel to Derek’s own crisis is... enlightening.
Through the pages of Becoming TIGERS, Crampton addresses key leadership and teamwork mistakes from the lens of a micro-managing, command and control leader who is faced with devastating losses. What Derek learns from a pointed children’s fable just might change everything!
Sometimes the best lessons in life are the simplest. If you are tired of traditional business management books with very little empathy for the challenges you face, then add Becoming TIGERS to your bookshelf today. It just may transform your life!
DIANNE CRAMPTON is one of North America's leading experts on corporate team culture and is a sought-after Workforce Development Consultant, Workforce Behavior Improvement Coach, Speaker and Author. While obtaining her advanced degree in Organizational Leadership from Gonzaga University, Crampton conducted comprehensive research on group dynamics, and discovered that the six TIGERS® principles (Trust, Interdependence, Genuineness, Empathy, Risk and Success) are necessary for building ethical, quality-focused, productive, motivated and successful groups of people. Her TIGERS system has been independently tested twice for its ability to predict and prescribe -- with certainty -- on-target and just-in-time team interventions and training.
Crampton has presented the TIGERS model to organizations like the National Institute of Applied Business Ethics and the United Nations Sponsored Inter-generational Conference. TIGERS was nominated by Merrill Lynch for Inc. Magazine’s Entrepreneur of the Year Awards.
