Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Deepak Chopra lights the way to twenty-first century leadership, where consciousness, love, and compassion redefine the locus of power in relationships and organizations.”—John Mackey, co-CEO Whole Foods Market Bestselling author and spiritual guide Deepak Chopra invites you to become the kind of leader most needed today: a leader with vision who can make that vision real. Chopra has been teaching leadership to CEOs and other top executives for eight years, and the path outlined in The Soul of Leadership applies to any business, but the same principles are relevant in every community and area of life, from family and home to school, place of worship, and neighborhood. “At the deepest level,” Chopra writes, “a leader is the symbolic soul of a group.” With clear, practical steps, you are led through the crucial skills outlined in the acronym L-E-A-D-E-R-S: L = Look and Listen E = Emotional Bonding A = Awareness D = Doing E = Empowerment R = Responsibility S = Synchronicity After identifying your own soul profile and the core values you want to develop, you can use these seven skills to allow your potential for greatness to emerge. Only from the level of the soul, Chopra contends, are great leaders created. Once that connection is made, you have unlimited access to the most vital qualities a leader can possess: creativity, intelligence, organizing power, and love. The Soul of Leadership aims to fill the most critical void in contemporary life, the void of enlightened leaders. “You can be such a leader,” Chopra promises. “The path is open to you. The only requirement is that you learn to listen to your inner guide.” In this unique handbook you are shown how to do just that, in words as practical as they are uplifting. The future is unfolding at this very minute, and the choice to lead it lies with each of us, here and now.

Download or read book The Soul of a Leader Echoes written by Eileen Timmins and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask a dozen people what makes a soulful leader, and you will probably get a dozen different answers. In The Soul of a Leader Echoes, Eileen Timmins, Ph.D. and Alicia M. Straughter, Ph.D. intuitively and succinctly define the importance of soulfulness in an organizational leader and reveal the leadership model the world desperately needs now more than ever: servant leadership. During these unprecedented times, businesses and organizations are struggling with profound economic implications and uncertainties created by the coronavirus pandemic and social unrest. These challenges complicate and compound the problems in long-established hierarchical systems littered with self-serving leaders, a disengaged workforce, and myriad challenges in technology, regionalized controls, relentless change and more. At this pivotal time, the world needs leaders who are here to serve, to stretch beyond their "normal," to be exceedingly human, soulful leaders. For current leaders who are good human beings, who care about their employees, who wish to listen to followers and help them win, the question becomes: How do I create a culture in a work environment that excites people? The answer is to listen and learn from other soulful servant leaders, those who connect to all voices with equality, acceptance, and dignity. What if instead of forging ahead with a business culture fixated on winning sales, digital transformation, profit and ambition, leaders took the time to focus on person-to-person interactions with employees and letting them know that who they are and what they do matters? Years from now, members of vibrant and healthy organizations will be grateful their leaders did exactly that. Through the stories in this book, drawn from interviews with dozens of select CEOs, physicians, pastors, principals, military personnel, and nonprofit and organizational leaders, the authors created a recipe for identifying, cultivating and becoming a true c-suite soulful leader who grows and helms successful organizations. The book explores the remarkable real-life stories of top leaders -- ordinary people who weave their spirituality into their leadership to create extraordinary impact on their organizations, leading them to outperform competitors and achieve success. By unifying the culture, maximizing human potential, and aligning the organization around a common set of principles, soulful leaders engender a competitive advantage, arguably more powerful than any other. These lessons from the front lines have the potential to inspire a social movement in leading with empathy and humanity across organizations large and small. Servant leaders can lead their teams to achieve greater results, build more loyal customer bases and develop engaged, fulfilled, and mission-driven employees. The book invites readers to reflect on and be inspired by conversations with these ordinary people who make extraordinary impact on strategies, success stories, spirituality, and leadership by leading with their hearts and souls.
Download or read book Yes to the Mess written by Frank J. Barrett and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2012-07-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Duke Ellington and Miles Davis teach us about leadership How do you cope when faced with complexity and constant change at work? Here’s what the world’s best leaders and teams do: they improvise. They invent novel responses and take calculated risks without a scripted plan or a safety net that guarantees specific outcomes. They negotiate with each other as they proceed, and they don’t dwell on mistakes or stifle each other’s ideas. In short, they say “yes to the mess” that is today’s hurried, harried, yet enormously innovative and fertile world of work. This is exactly what great jazz musicians do. In this revelatory book, accomplished jazz pianist and management scholar Frank Barrett shows how this improvisational “jazz mind-set” and the skills that go along with it are essential for effective leadership today. With fascinating stories of the insights and innovations of jazz greats such as Miles Davis and Sonny Rollins, as well as probing accounts of the wisdom gleaned from his own experience as a jazz musician, Barrett introduces a new model for leading and collaborating in organizations. He describes how, like skilled jazz players, leaders need to master the art of unlearning, perform and experiment simultaneously, and take turns soloing and supporting each other. And with examples that range from manufacturing to the military to high-tech, he illustrates how organizations must take an inventive approach to crisis management, economic volatility, and all the rapidly evolving realities of our globally connected world. Leaders today need to be expert improvisers. Yes to the Mess vividly shows how the principles of jazz thinking and jazz performance can help anyone who leads teams or works with them to develop these critical skills, wherever they sit in the organization. Engaging and insightful, Yes to the Mess is a seminar on collaboration and complexity, against the soulful backdrop of jazz.

Download or read book The Soulful Art of Persuasion written by Jason Harris and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Soulful Art of Persuasion is a revolutionary guide to becoming a master influencer in an age of distrust through the cultivation of character-building habits that are essential to both personal growth and sustained business success. This isn't a book full of tips and life-hacks. Instead, The Soulful Art of Persuasion will develop the habits that others want to be influenced by. This book is based on a radical idea: Persuasion isn't about facts and argument. It's all about personal character. Jason Harris, CEO of the powerhouse creative agency Mekanism, argues that genuine persuasion in the twenty-first century is about developing character rather than relying on the easy tactics of flattery, manipulation, and short-term gains. It is about engaging rather than insisting; it is about developing empathy and communicating your values. Based on his experience in and out of the boardroom, and drawing on the latest in-depth research on trust, influence, and habit formation, Harris shows that being persuasive in a culture plagued by deception means rejecting the ethos of the quick and embracing the commitment of putting your truest self forward and playing the long game. Through instructive and entertaining stories, Harris lays out the 11 habits that will guide readers to become authentically persuasive, including Earning respect through collaboration Becoming the person others want to be around Practicing generosity through gestures big and small Persuasion today is about personal excellence, sharing the stage, and respecting other people's motivations. In The Soulful Art of Persuasion, Jason Harris shows us the way.

Download or read book Strategy Leadership and the Soul written by Jennifer Sertl and published by Triarchy Press Limited. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategy, Leadership and the Soul presents a new paradigm for organizations. In building their case, the authors present a unique analysis of the dynamics of organizational evolution since 1850 to the present day, reflecting on how the context of the changing nature of society over time has informed the necessary adjustments in structure and leadership and in what way these have been vital to the sustainability of those organizations. The current quixotic context for both small and large organizations - the rapidly changing business landscapes, global interconnectedness, technological innovation and the diversity of the needs of customers and employees alike - requires organizations to 'be in a state of permanent transformation if they are to survive', to become transorganizations. And in order for these transorganizations to survive, a new style of leader is required - a transleader. From their experience as consultants, the authors conclude that transleaders must transform themselves first rather than look to the outside for a solution. The soul of an organization is the intrinsic corporate identity that underlies all that it does, that informs its business practices, its aims and goals, its internal and external relationships and its intangible sense of direction-shared in an aligned way between its employees, its managers, its shareholders and its business partners. It is the extremely present and powerful set of beliefs that make the organization what it is. This is not the same as superficial PR or the 'image' on advertisements, nor is it just brand identity or corporate culture, but the identity that defines and aligns the relationship it has within the various sectors of the organization and in its interface with the global community.
