EVERYDAY
LEADERS
SMALL ACTIONS
BIG RESULTS
To purchase and see bonus material:
For too long, our recognition of leadership has been narrowly defined to a select few –– presidents, CEOs or historical icons. We have been captivated by charismatic figures on the cover of Forbes or viral sensations on social media. But what about the everyday leaders who have shaped us on a personal level? The parents, mentors, teammates and family members who have left an indelible mark on our lives? It's time to reimagine leadership, to celebrate the silent influencers and to recognize that each one of us possesses the power to lead. Are you ready to step into your role as an everyday leader?
In Everyday Leaders, you will read about principles, stories, and people that help you learn to:
Understand the difference between micromanagement and everyday leadership as well as the importance of empowering and nurturing others.
Recognize the value of stepping outside one's comfort zone to facilitate personal and professional growth.
Seek discomfort to lead to greater growth over time -- with strategies for gradually expanding one's comfort zone through small, everyday actions.
Appreciate how individuals can have a profound impact on those around them, regardless of their position or title -- and show appreciation for those people in your life.
Discover the importance of finding one's "why" or purpose as a leader, beyond just pursuing victories or accolades.
Understand how prioritizing the needs, growth and happiness of others is a key aspect of effective everyday leadership. (It's not about you)
