The Effective Leader
How To Balance Your Mind, Body And Spirit At Work And At Home
This is a motivational leadership book that explores mind, body, spirit in the context of the work environment through nine easy steps.
A successful leader needs to access a wide range of strengths and skills. But the great quest of our age is about bringing balance into our lives. So how do we bring our professional and personal world into balance, and still provide effective leadership and management?
The Effective Leader focuses on the total person and offers ideas and understandings to apply to all aspects of life. Vicki Bennett and Ian Mathieson explore nine key challenges facing leaders today and argue that balance in life can be achieved systematically and purposefully. If we can successfully balance our mind, body and spirit we can also balance our work, family life and recreational pursuits.
The nine key chapters which explore the leadership challenge are:
- Leadership can be learned
- Get in touch with your spirit
- Integrating intuition and envisaging into planning
- Open up your antennae
- The power of choice in your roles
- Turn on and tune into both sides of your brain
- Treat yourself well
- Search out the talents around you
- Forgive quickly
This book will stimulate your thinking and give you creative and practical ideas to enhance your abilities as a leader, at work, in your family and your community organisations.
