BOOKCASE : The G Quotient: Why Gay Executives are Excelling as Leaders


• Kirk Snyder • Jossey-Bass • $38.95

First IQ, then EQ, even SQ (spiritual) – and now GQ, the ‘gay’ quotient in leadership. Why do gay leaders engender greater levels of engagement from their work teams? After explaining why “gay executives are in the right place at the right time”, Snyder identifies seven principles underpinning their success: inclusion, creativity, adaptability, connectivity, communication, intuition and collaboration. At time when employee engagement is increasingly regarded as an essential workplace ingredient – this take on how to get there is worth look. You can even assess your own GQ.
