st and most successful companies in the world, Jim Dethmer, Diana Chapman, and Kaley Warner Klemp reveal a groundbreaking leadership paradigm that's proven to extinguish drama, unlock innovation, and revitalize teams-and it all starts with recognizing that leadership is binary. At any given moment, we're either open and curious or closed and defensive, or put another way, leading consciously or unconsciously. Conscious leadership embraces the belief that life is crafted by me rather than happening to me and rejects "command and control" and reactive, fear-based leadership. It is a fundamental-and entirely liberating-shift in perspective. Workplace challenges are no longer problems threatening our ego, productivity, or livelihood, but instead opportunities unfolding perfectly for our own learning and development. Brimming with practical advice for embracing conscious leadership, this book details fifteen core commitments, like cultivating self-awareness, taking radical responsibility, and feeling all feelings, that promise nothing short of a total cultural revolution: a workplace that prioritizes building authentic connections, eliminating morale-destroying gossip, and amplifying each person's unique genius, all while honoring the intrinsic human need for play and rest. Combining deep wisdom with illuminating stories of real coaching challenges, The Fifteen Commitments of Conscious Leadership isn't just a theoretical guide for better management-it's a practical roadmap for profound personal and professional transformation"-- Provided by publisher.
