When Leadership* Hits the Fan: How Global Concepts Can Influence Hard Choices and Inspire Greatness

HOW DO YOU STOP A CYCLE OF BURNOUT AND BAD DECISIONS? Life is full of hard choices, changes, and crisis. And let's face it: leadership may look appealing on the surface, but it always brings more hard choices, more changes, and the occasional crisis ... or two ... or ten. Adversity of all shapes and sizes is a given, but it's the hard choices you make and the happiness you pursue that truly define the type of leader you can become. While most leadership advice focuses on lists of feel-good traits and attributes of other leaders, it's worth asking whether that actually helps you become a great leader―or just a clone of someone else. When Leadershi* Hits the Fan is all about cutting through the murky status quo of leadership platitudes to discover the connection between happiness and success. It approaches leadership in a revolutionary, inside-out method that takes the global economic concepts of GDP and the World Happiness Index and applies them on a personal level through in-depth self-assessments. Packed with lessons learned, powerful true stories, inspirational analogies, and practical exercises, each chapter is designed to help you ask tough questions that will lead you to maximize your productivity, your happiness, and ultimately, the bottom line.
