How to be Second: Being Second is a Destination, not a Stepping Stone - Nathan Young

\nChief Operating Officer. Chief of Staff. General Manager. Second in Command. The job title can vary. But there is something that unifies these roles when you see them performed well. It's a particular kind of person with a particular kind of wiring, and a particular kind of person whose strengths are amplified when working in a leadership duo. \n \n \n\n \nWho is this person, you might ask? They're called Seconds. And this book is dedicated to them. \n \n \n\n \nIn How to be Second, Nathan Young and David Hartman explore all sorts of questions about Seconds: \n \nWho is a Second? \n \nHow do you know if you're a Second? \n \nWhat are some strengths and challenges of Seconds? \n \nWhy does my organization need a Second (or multiple Seconds)? \n \nHow do I best work with or for a Second? \n \nHow do I hire a great Second? \n \n \n\n \nSeconds, at their core, are valuable leaders. But their leadership shows up best and is activated by working for another leader. \n \n \n\n \nIf you are a Second, a person who might need a Second, or if you're neither... leadership won't look the same to you after reading this book.\n
