Serve Up Coach Down : Mastering both sides of leadership

"Serve Up Coach Down" by Nathan Jamail challenges the myths of servant leadership, arguing that middle leaders should serve up to bosses and coach down to their teams, rather than the opposite. This shift, Jamail claims, is crucial for harnessing the power and responsibility middle leaders have over alignment, accountability, and execution in an organization. The book offers insights on overcoming barriers to leadership efficacy, emphasizing the importance of creating strong leaders for organizational success and competitive advantage through speed of change. Perfect for those looking to foster a robust team culture.

Serve Up Coach Down is Nathan Jamail’s most impactful and contentious book yet. It debunks the myths of servant leadership that other books sell, namely that leaders in the middle must serve down to their people and defend up to their bosses. This is the exact opposite of what they should do: serve up to their bosses and coach down to their people. And it is costing them their power every day.

98% of leaders are leading from the middle, meaning they have a boss or bosses they answer to and employees they lead. From senior vice presidents to front-line managers, they should be the most powerful leaders in any organization. They are responsible for alignment, speed of change, buy-in, belief, accountability, and execution. Yet they often struggle with all of that by getting their teams to step up and winning approval from those above them. Why? Because they are serving down and defending up.

Serve Up Coach Down addresses the key issues and obstacles that prevent leaders in the middle from owning the power that should drive their, their team’s, and their organization’s success and gives organizations the greatest competitive advantage they can have—speed of change—by creating leaders who their bosses can count on and who make their employees better.

Want an organization with strong leaders and organizations based on a strong team culture built on strong leaders developing other strong leaders? Serve Up Coach Down is for you!
