Either through rank, relationship, or personality, you find yourself in a position of influence with those around you. If that is you, then I wrote this book to help you use that superpower to change lives and shape futures.
I call that superpower leadership, and the people who carry it, leaders.
Most of us know how to manage tasks, projects and timelines. We can juggle priorities and track deliverables, but we are lost when it comes to tapping into what actually inspires people to bring their best to work every day.
When we learn how to stoke the fire that exists within everyone, something powerful happens. We ignite an inner motivation that causes a chain reaction of behavior which enables people to perform at their highest level. I have seen it happen many times. They bring creativity, resilience, and their best thinking to the table. Not because they are told to do more, but because they are inspired to rise to the challenge. This capacity is built into us as humans. It is in all of us, and as leaders, it is part of our job to find that spark, light it and fan the flame.
I've been leading teams of people for over 25 years. As a parent, spouse, business owner, leadership & engagement consultant, and keynote speaker, I've worked with hundreds of organizations and supported their leaders in tapping into this seemingly elusive intrinsic motivation in both themselves and their people. I wrote this book to help more people do the same.
My approach is grounded in research and personal experience. My promise to you is that if you learn and practice the tools in this book, you will create an environment that people are excited to be a part of. You will learn how to bring the best version of yourself to all areas of your life, and empower others to do the same. You will discover how to build teams that are more engaged, enthusiastic, and productive.
This will change your life, as it has mine and countless others, and I am stoked that you are here!
