Management: leadership & motivation

No organizational leaders can succeed in today's fast evolving and highly connected world on their own. To succeed, today's leaders must not only optimize all their own faculties-mental sharpness, emotional depth, imagination, and creativity-but also utilize the full capacities of those around them in a collaborative and creative manner.

The prestigious contributors to this volume draw on psychology, sociology, neuroscience, social networking theory, organizational change theory, myths and traditions, and actual experiences to discover how leaders today achieve transformational results. The Transforming Leader offers an overview of what transformational leadership is, how it works, and how it is evolving. In doing so it reframes the challenge of leading in today's interdependent, unpredictable world.

Reviews for The Transforming Leader: New Approaches to Leadership for the Twenty-First Century

Carol Pearson and her colleagues are moving my work on transforming leadership forward in interdisciplinary and contemporary ways. --James MacGregor Burns, Pulitzer Prize-winning presidential biographer and author of Transforming Leadership A wonderful collection of diverse and wise perspectives, giving shared voice to the need to understand ourselves and leadership from a much deeper place, using intelligence, compassion, and wise action to meet the challenges looming ahead. --Margaret J. Wheatley, author of Leadership and the New Science By significantly addressing the essential impact of the inner condition of leaders, The Transforming Leader adds to the ongoing work of illuminating the blind spot that has plagued the field for so long. --C. Otto Scharmer, author of Theory U and Senior Lecturer, MIT Sloan School of Management Here is an important and timely resource for all who have the courage to lead, written by people who know what they are talking about. May the book be widely read, and may the inner and outer practices it recommends be widely adopted. --Parker J. Palmer, author of Healing the Heart of Democracy, The Courage to Teach, and Let Your Life Speak
