Interesting insights.It is necessary to embrace a holistic approach of the individual in order to increase success in personal and professional development. Human beings are composed of 4 dimensions: physical (basic needs), mental, emotional and psychological. In the corporate world we tend to focus on only on 1 or 2 dimensions: physical and mental. It is time to involve emotions and even psychology or spirituality at work to allow each individual to use its full potential.
"Leaders and employees alike need to train their rational brain to work in sync with their emotional brain if they are to shift from self-protective behaviors that get in the way of achieving their potential. As humans, it is only by understanding how to harness our emotions that sustainable development and behavior change occurs. Understanding how a leader or employee’s brain is wired and the emotional drivers of their behavior is critical to their ability to engage in learning and developing."

Great Leaders naturally strive to go to places others can't seem to find. They get there by challenging most of the things good leaders hold dear. This is an important article for those that want to be great leaders, but I would add one thing. Challenge how you define Top Talent. As you strive to go to places others have never been, be sure you aren't using criteria others use to define of top talent.

Susan, I'm not happy with you. (JOKING!) I am frustrated that such an interesting book is shared with me on the FIRST day of my new semester. With new classes and my current 'to read' list, I really wish that I would have read this one over break. it looks great. Thanks for sharing :) !!!

So it's about transforming the people, helping them grow - which in turn transforms the organisation.

Are you a "Digital Leader?" Interesting take on leadership and one that hits home as I prepare for my favorite "personal learning journey" at the upcoming DigitalNow - Association Leadership Conferencein Orlando, FL next week. I like the MIT Data-driven analysis of "digital leaders", "Our analysis found that they are 26% more profitable than their average industry competitors and enjoy a 12% higher market valuation. They generate 9% more revenue with their existing physical capacity and drive more efficiency in their existing products and processes." Worth a read... and will be a major theme at our spring townhalls and escpecially our upcoming Innoavtion Summit on May17th in Baltimore. http://www.macpa.org/Public/Catalog/CourseDetails.aspx?CourseID=13191008

...particularly useful advice for those who are to lead people through change. Most of this stuff is commonsense, although good sense is unfortunately uncommon amongst many 'leaders' I've observed.

Agree - there are some parallels with theory U, in which presencing is a key element.
