Description
This book represents a major breakthrough both in the field of leadership and leadership development, as well as the leading edge of applied integral
...
theory. For the first time, integral psychology has been applied to leadership and leadership development in a comprehensive and thoroughly field-tested way. The author of this book was the individual who collaborated with world-renowned integral philosopher Ken Wilber to develop the theory and practice known as "Integral Leadership." This framework not only transcends and includes all other leadership theories, it ushers the field of leadership development into the "second simplicity," that is, the simplicity on the other side of complexity. Further, the methods outlined in this book series have been field tested with more than 10,000 leaders in more than 2,000 companies, and have also travelled around the world to benefit numerous leaders in developing countries and young democracies. The code has finally been cracked on leadership and leadership development. Thanks to this clever and time-tested application of integral theory to leadership, we now know definitively, which leadership styles (and approaches to leadership) will work with which people and circumstances... and with which people and circumstances certain approaches will be disastrous failures. If you are a student or practitioner of leadership, leadership development, integral theory or developmental psychology, then you will likely find this book eye-opening and mind expanding. This method is a result of two decades of research involving millions of dollars and more than 50,000 man hours of testing with leadership trainers and coaches. The flagship program called the "Integral Leadership Program" has been running for 22 years concurrently, and going strong, with thousands of executives including many CEOs having graduated from the program with combined registration fees exceeding $30 million dollars. That training (that this book is based on) costs $36,000 per person. Now you can gain access to the most important insights from this 22-year highly successful experiment by reading this book written by the creator of the Integral Leadership Program and the co-creator, with Ken Wilber, of the practice of "Integral Leadership."
