Summary

Greg Hicks has created the LeaderShock program - a revolutionary new way to lead that's based on seven years of breakthrough research into flourishing leaders and organizational cultures. His award-winning program has shown thousands how to thrive in spite of a worldwide business culture that has us managing from one crisis to the next, fighting forces beyond our control, and taking actions that don't "pay off." Now it's your turn to thrive.
Unlike other books that describe generic leadership traits, this book offers a radically different solution: a practical roadmap of eight behavioral rules you can use regardless of your personality, experience level, organizational culture, gender, or age. Adopt all eight rules and something amazing happens - all those outside forces beyond your control will no longer control you. You'll get both the business results and personal fulfillment you need to break free from the LeaderShock syndrome.
