The Third Opinion: How Successful Leaders Use Outside Insight to Create Superior Results – eBook

by Saj-nicole A. Joni, PhD

No matter where you are on the corporate ladder, being a leader in today’s business world is a difficult, sometimes even isolating experience. There are many people you can turn to for advice. First, you’ll certainly get an opinion from your closest coworkers. Second, you may then turn to colleagues (inside or outside the company) for another opinion. But there is another opinion—the third opinion—that most people never ask for, and it’s the most important one of all.

In The Third Opinion, Saj-nicole Joni explains how everyone from CEOs and senior executives to department heads and managers can create a loyal and diverse inner circle of advisers, experts, and mentors—all eager to offer their unvarnished insight when you need it most. This book examines how anyone can develop this vital but often overlooked key to reaching and sustaining peak performance.

Based on Dr. Joni’s years of research and her work as a well-respected third-opinion adviser to some of the world’s top executives, The Third Opinion is a practical guide to building the most powerful advisory team possible at each stage of your career. Filled with compelling real-life examples, The Third Opinion shows how this inner circle will provide the kind of guidance, input, trust, and feedback that can turn a good leader into a great one.
