Transact, Transform, Transcend, Becoming a Thoughtful Leader: Stories from the Journey

Are you ready to be . . . better?

Navigating the path to becoming a better, more thoughtful, leader requires an understanding and awareness of how individuals grow and evolve, how everyday transactions can morph into significant transformations, and how mindset, intent, and an informed heartfelt approach can drive organization value.

This book examines the activities, capabilities, and experiences of three types of leaders: transactionaltransformational, and transcendent (as well as the transitions between each) to help navigate and clarify a path toward becoming a more thoughtful leader. Leadership knowledge, skills, values, and a strong belief system enable and equip an individual, but more is required to rise above the fray and become the leader required for a given moment or situation.

What is thoughtful leadership? At their core, a thoughtful leader listens — not just with their ears, but with their heart, their experiences, and with an informed gut. The thoughtful leader also routinely empathizes with their team — taking the time to lean in and share experiences, pay attention to the epidata swirling around everyone, and being aware of what is going on within the organization. Being a sponge and absorbing and synthesizing activities and happenings is a hallmark of a thoughtful leader, as is having the skills, proficiency, and fortitude to comprehend the whole environment of their organization — discerning, participating, and not retreating.

BE ready to become a next generation leader — ready to optimize and advance connections, conversations, and collaborations!

One of the positive outcomes of all the chaos, dysfunction, disruption, ambiguity, destabilization… etc, caused by the ideology, political, religious, and tribal conflicts going on in the world around us is the realization that there is a commonality shared amongst successful people from around the world in how they are able to become successful and more importantly, repeatedly succeed. The commonality is a 14 Step journey these successful people have traveled, leading by example, and blazing a trail for the rest of us to follow.
