520 3  Every leader needs to move people to action and align 
       everyone's actions toward the same goal. But how is this 
       best accomplished? Words are a leader's greatest tool, and
       metaphors are the most potent combination of words 
       available. If a leader wants to be successful in 
       communicating vision, motivating people, and transforming 
       an organization, he or she must understand the power of 
       metaphors and learn how to use them well. Through the 
       proper use of metaphors, anyone can become a better leader,
       align his or her team with their organizational values, 
       and lead the organization to success. Metaphors can 
       activate vision and mission statements, enliven goals and 
       objectives, and literally align every aspect of an 
       organization in its intended direction. In SPeak 
       Performance: Using the Power of Metaphors to Communicate 
       Vision, Motivate People, and Lead Your Organization to 
       Success, Jim Walz, PhD, shares his proprietary method of 
       developing metaphors for use by any leader of people. The 
       knowledge gained from the principles in this book will 
       help leaders develop stronger vision and mission 
       statements that are action oriented, and it will provide a
       schematic to organize goals and objectives that are 
       relevant and focused on accomplishing the vision. 
       Organizations can be transformed in the way they do 
       business and find the ability to compete in a global 
       marketplace more effectively than ever before. Whether you
       are an aspiring leader, a supervisor, manager, or 
       corporate executive, this book will provide you with 
       communication tools that will take your leadership to the 
       next level and beyond.
