Wall Street Journal bestseller An expert on the psychology of
leadership and the bestselling author of Integrity, Necessary
Endings, and Boundaries For Leaders identifies the critical
ingredient for personal and professional wellbeing. Most leadership
coaching focuses on helping leaders build their skills and
knowledge and close performance gaps. These are necessary, but not
sufficient. Using evidence from neuroscience and his work with
leaders, Dr. Henry Cloud shows that the best performers draw on
another vital resource: personal and professional relationships
that fuel growth and help them surpass current limits. Popular
wisdom suggests that we should not allow others to have power over
us, but the reality is that they do, for better or for worse.
Consider the boss who diminishes you through cutting remarks versus
one who challenges you to get better. Or the colleague who always
seeks the limelight versus the one who gives you the confidence to
finish a difficult project. Or the spouse who is honest and
supportive versus the one who resents your success. No matter how
talented, intelligent, or experienced, the greatest leaders share
one commonality: the power of the others in their lives. Combining
engaging case studies, persuasive findings from cutting-edge brain
research, and examples from his consulting practice, Dr. Cloud
argues that whether you're a Navy SEAL or a corporate executive,
outstanding performance depends on having the right kind of
connections to fuel personal growth and minimize toxic associations
and their effects. Presenting a dynamic model of the impact these
different kinds of connections produce, Dr. Cloud shows readers how
to get more from themselves by drawing on the strength and
expertise of others. You don't have a choice whether or not others
have power in your life, but you can choose what kinds of
relationships you want.
