SOAK IN THE SUN AND NEW SKILLS WITH DEBUT DLE SUMMER READ

Always aiming to innovate, the DLE is introducing a new engagement practice this summer to unite community members.

It’s the DLE Summer Read–a non-fiction best seller selected by community members for its relevance and applicability for professional development. The winning title is Leading Without Power by Max De Pree, the Fortune 25 CEO whose Herman Miller business has triumphed for more than 60 years in the furniture industry thanks to its innovative ideas.

You can access Leading Without Power several ways:

• Borrow a copy from the DLE HQ at 100 North Street, Suite 402. Several copies have been purchased as two-week loaners for DLE members.
• Purchase a copy from Thriftbooks.com or Betterworldbooks.com. Both sites sell used copies of the book for a reduced price.
• Purchase a copy at full price on Amazon
• Consult your local public library for availability

THREE REASONS WHY LEADING WITHOUT POWER IS WORTH THE READ

• It’s straightforward and short.
• It offers proven techniques for creating a collaborative work culture that are applicable in any organization.
• It will keep you accountable for developing leadership skills and self-awareness. 

Starting in June, the DLE will showcase key takeaways weekly from Leading Without Power to keep DLE members engaged and accountable in their DLE Summer Read commitment. Check out the DLE’s Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn pages for highlights.

Shared learnings from the DLE Summer Read, Leading Without Power, will electrify discussion at the next in-person DLE Meetup, slated for August 26.

DLE Members Luke Fitzgerald, Cam Hadley and Janet Forest will serve as moderators of large group and breakout conversations on key themes of the book and their applicability in today’s workplace. To participate, contact dle@dulye.com.
