Leading for Tomorrow Virtual Book Summit!
Join the top business thinkers of our generation for the virtual launch of "Leading for Tomorrow: Unlocking Human Potential in the Era of Continuous Change and Endless Possibility".
Today is Pub Day for Leading for Tomorrow: Unlocking Human Potential in the Era of Continuous Change and Endless Possibility! 🎉🎉🎉
It was an absolute honor working with Chris Shipley to edit this compilation of essays that chart a pathway to an understanding of what it takes to lead people effectively in the modern era. In a world defined by relentless change, leading by operational efficiency alone is no longer enough. Leading for Tomorrow gathers a remarkable group of thinkers and practitioners to chart a more human-centered path forward—one built on adaptability, agency, and a new hierarchy of human needs.
You’ll explore the latest leadership styles and strategies, learning how to lead yourself, lead others, and lead organizations. You’ll also discover how to harness the principles of self-actualization, manage mental health challenges in yourself and others, and identify the qualities that help you get and stay motivated at work. This book is perfect for managers, executives, business leaders, or anyone seeking to improve their ability to lead, inspire, and motivate others.
To celebrate this exciting book launch, we decided to host a free virtual summit on July 19th from 10am PT- 11:30am PT / 1pm-2:30pm ET live on Zoom!
In this live conversation, leading business thinkers will share the ideas at the heart of the book, along with stories and practical takeaways for anyone who wants to lead—and live—more fully in the years ahead.
Free to attend. BONUS: Register and we will give you the foreword and introduction to the book for free!
