The Self-Leadership Handbook Upplaga 1

Self-leadership is the foundation that lets you function well over a long working life: the discipline of directing your thoughts, energy, and choices toward what matters, sustainably and in line with your values. The Self-Leadership Handbook treats it as a learnable discipline, not a trait, and builds the capabilities that keep you effective under pressure and clear about what your work is for. Written for the curious practitioner, from individual contributor to senior leader who coaches other leaders. With this foundation in place, the step to leading others is shorter than it looks. From the introduction:  “We train people in their craft (C++, project management, nursing care, teaching children), in their tools, in how to lead others, yet we leave the most fundamental thing to chance: how to lead ourselves deliberately, successfully, and sustainably. It's not a small thing.”
