I was reflecting on skill of leaders being able to make good judgment calls. I was planning to write how developing leaders should develop this ability and I came across this book: Judgment: How Winning Leaders Make Great Calls by Noel M. Tichy and Warren G. Bennis

I thought it is better to mention a book review posted on Amazon.com to cover more on this topic:

According to Tichy and Bennis, there is a framework of three "critical domains" within which all decisions are made. Judgments about people are the most difficult, and most critical; the others involve strategy and crisis. They stress that good judgment calls are a process, not an event. Each begins when a leader recognizes a need and frames the decision to be made, with the process continuing through execution and adjustment. They also stress the importance of possessing sufficient self-knowledge because making a right call "isn't a solo performance; support teams are vital."

I do like the content covered in this book and I believe that this book will be a good resource for developing leaders.
