Books published by Garuda
Garuda’s founder, Finn Havaleschka, has written a number of books about the mindset that makes up Garuda.
Here we have selected four of them – you can order them by writing to us at garuda@garuda.dk or from Saxo:
Personality-Driven Leadership is Havaleschka’s latest book.
It argues for a greater degree of linearity in leadership so that personal leadership can become more stable and less dependent on fashion directions (Price: 80 kr. ex. VAT + shipping).
The generous leader is about meeting employees where they are based on their ambitions, skills and needs.
The premise of the book’s method is that leadership responsibility is shared between manager and employee.
This means that although the manager naturally has a great responsibility for the well-being and development of their employees, the led – i.e. the employee – has a shared responsibility that is often overlooked in management literature (Price: DKK 160 ex. VAT + shipping).
Unlocking your personal potential focuses on you.
Where you are, what makes up your happy place and what your career (dreams) entail.
Former national coach and current mayor of Viborg, Ulrik Wilbek, wrote the book’s foreword and his recommendation is clear: “Read the book.
The worst thing that can happen is that you become wiser about life” (Price: 160 DKK ex. VAT + shipping).
Focused Leadership describes how you need to know yourself to be a good leader – and know what your strengths and weaknesses are.
You need the same knowledge about your employees so you can meet them where they are at their best.
You can download “Focused Leadership” as an e-book on our blog (Price for physical book: 80 DKK ex. VAT + shipping).
