Synopsis

In a fast changing world, where jobs for life no longer exist, your personal security has to come from within. It’s time to take back control and manage your life as you would manage a project – time to lead yourself before leading others.  As the corporate safety net disappears, so does the guarantee of emotional and financial security from your job title. You can’t rely on your company, any more, to tell you who you are or where you’re going. Time to work it out for yourself. Time to find security and energy from within. It’s a much better place to be.Building a leadership style based on personal capital, personal effectiveness and personal network is becoming of critical importance, as is the ability to guide your own career.  This book pulls together a wide range of thoughts, ideas and techniques. It will help you to:

• Take a greater degree of control over your life and how you lead other people.

• Challenge, question and stimulate you to assess how you think, feel and behave and, where necessary, make the changes you need to make to be a more effective more fulfilled person.

• Address the common dual aims of guiding your own career and becoming a better leader of others

• Contains exercises and self-assessment tests to help guide you through the theory

That way you take people with you, wherever you go.
