Book Description
The principles and practices of Personal Leadership help people access the inherently creative possibilities that exist when they come together from different backgrounds or with different perspectives. Instead of turning away from difference in fear or mistrust, Personal Leadership helps people engage with difference from a place of inspiration, curiosity, and full intelligence, and in alignment with their highest and best. The three authors have extensive personal experience working and living across cultures and in situations of difference, in both domestic and global contexts. The fifty stories used throughout the book to illustrate the core themes are drawn from their own lives and from those of the many Personal Leadership practitioners in global business, international education, diversity initiatives, team building, community building, international cooperation, and leadership development. Together they show how we can use Personal Leadership when we find ourselves in unfamiliar environments, in contexts that are rapidly changing, or in the midst of personal or professional transition. The book is well-written, easy to read, and intends to help us all "make a world of difference."

A Very Personal Leadership
Author: Colleen Mac Dougall PhD
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 146027850X
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Before leadership becomes a role or a position used to influence others, it is a personal story. It is a story about early memories, choices, mentors, journeys, challenges, and moments that shaped us. It is a story about innocence and pushing through fear, about facing adversity, loss, limitations—and examining how our values and beliefs shape where we go from here. You are invited to tell your own story: make deep inner shifts; mature your relationships and see what you are here to learn together; impact the vocation that has meaning in your life. It matters that we know our story. How we show up in our roles, our relationships, and our world has deep roots. A depth psychologist, I wrote this book to show, in detail, how we can grow those roots, and, today, make that difference that says to the world, “I care”. You will feel my presence as you work through the personal leadership process. The book is a personal companion, a professional guide, an illustrated journal—with places to pause, write, do art, and apply learning. If inclined toward reflection, you’ll appreciate the depth. Perhaps you are at a place of transition and need a positive way to embrace what you’ve been through (including choices made); you’re ready to do the inner work that will change, profoundly, how you view and engage with Life. As a graduate student, you’ll see what integral therapy looks like. For your professional life, you’ll re-member what first drew you to your Work—and feel deeply energized, spiritually expanded, realizing your early sense of purpose is still alive; it renews and matures as you let circumstances and contexts touch you now. 100% of the proceeds go to Leadership for Life Scholarship, to support graduate research that advances understanding of, and applies a new lens onto, the psycho-spiritual roots of protracted, global conflict.
