the organization's metrics and initiatives as a basis for
increasing per-employee productivity. For the executive team, Ken

reducing the distance between time of decision and time action is
taken. Additionally, he advises leaders and instructs managers on
how to unleash employee discretionary effort to drive long-term
business outcomes. Ken has published two other books and is in
demand as a speaker for groups of all sizes.
“The Leadership Triangle effectively illustrates how the role of
the transformational leader is increasingly important in today’s
world. No longer can we afford to lead with a one-size-fits-all
mentality and expect to succeed or contribute on a
professional/personal basis. This terrific book offers clear and
precise options that a leader can choose in order to successfully
transform their organization to meet the challenges of these
uncertain times. It also provides many insightful examples from key
leaders who model these concepts themselves. The result is a
powerful read.”
-Stephen M. R. Covey, author of The New York Times and # 1 Wall
Street Journal best seller, The Speed of Trust
“I love this book! I’m a firm believer in a situational approach to
leadership. You not only need to use different strokes for
different folks, but also for different situations. Ford and Tucker
do a superb job of the latter scenario. The Leadership Triangle is
a guidebook to help leaders, no matter what kind of organization,
choose the right approach for the situation they face. Read this
book and increase tenfold your chances of success.”
-Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager® and Leading at
a Higher Level
""I have great respect for Kevin Ford, and I am very grateful for
the positive influence he has had on countless leaders throughout
the world. I know of no one who has greater insight into the
challenges and opportunities every leader faces, and his writings
cannot help but have a positive impact on all who read them. I only
wish The Leadership Triangle had been available when I began my own
ministry. I’m sure I would have profited greatly from it.""
-Billy Graham, Montreat NC
