The Feiner Points of Leadership: The 50 Basic Laws That Will Make People Want to Perform Better for You, first published in 2004, is the book written by Michael Feiner, the former Vice President and Chief People Officer at Pepsi-Cola and former professor of Columbia Graduate School of Business. It presents 50 laws for managing business problems based on the author's experiences. The book explores how leaders can positively influence their teams, foster collaboration, and build a productive, motivated work environment. Feiner's approach is based on the idea that leadership is not just about managing tasks but about inspiring and empowering others to achieve their best potential.

Most notable laws

Here is the list of some of the most notable laws:

  • The Law of Expectations: People will live up to their perception of your expectations of their performance. To raise performance, raise expectations.
  • The Law of Building a Cathedral: Leaders convince their people that they're building a cathedral, not cutting stone.
  • The Law of Class vs. Style: Never...ever...ever...ever treat your boss like a bumbling old fool (even if he or she is one).
  • The Law of Winning Championships: No matter how talented the team, team members have different agendas-and leaders know what they are.
  • The Law of The Mirror: When having problems with a peer, start with the assumption you are the problem and don't assume evil intent until you see it.
  • The Law of the Onion: High-Performance Leaders look beneath the surface-and never assume anything.
  • The Law of the Tombstone: Remember what's really important-and that your net worth won't be noted on your final resting place.

Reception

It was selected by the Toronto Globe and Mail as the Best Business Book of 2004.
