In constant demand as a speaker and thought leader in business coaching around the world, David Rock understands why conventional “managing” and “motivating” rarely work. Supported by the latest research on the brain and learning styles, Quiet Leadership gives every stressed-out manager a simple system for bringing out the best in their colleagues. The core of Rock’s program for creating coaches is that modern organizations require a new ‘quiet’ kind of leadership—leadership that is capable of improving people’s thinking and therefore their performance. Rock adapts leading-edge findings about how we truly learn, and embeds them in a prescriptive strategy for managers at every level of the business world.

The highly-effective leader achieves breakthroughs by asking guided questions that help others understand their mental wiring, road blocks, and assumptions—and create new mental models for effective performance. Rock’s 5-step program walks every manager through this new process for teaching people how to change from within. The results Better thinking, positive change, high-performing teams. The book includes exercises, tips, sidebars, and dozens of powerful illustrations.
