Are you leading from who you are, or are you leading from who you think you are?If you want to excel in leadership, you must expand your capacity to flourish. This book sets out to show how many of our current popular perceptions about leadership don't necessarily help us, and what we now know from applied psychology, behavioral psychology, neuroscience and years of research shows how working with an awareness of our ego-behavioral triggers, we can develop our greatest leadership potential.
More than ever, leaders face pressure, anxiety, and fear of letting go of the need to be right, the need to have all answers, and the need for certainty. Self-preservation gets in the way of their leadership aspirations. Interpersonal issues aren't being addressed, or when addressed, escalate into serious performance problems and crises.
We don't need leaders who know about leadership - we need leaders who expand their capacity to flourish in the midst of difficulty, pressure, and uncertainty. More than ever, leaders face pressure, anxiety, and fear of letting go of the need to be right, the need to have all answers, and the need for certainty. Dysfunctional dynamics often driven by self-preservation gets in the way of their leadership work and aspirations.
