I was winning at work. I was losing at everything else.
Eric Himes had elite status on three airlines and a career on a rocket trajectory. Then, alone in yet another hotel room, he opened a photo from family dinner back home. His children were laughing. His seat was empty.
That night started the rebuild of his faith, his family, and the way he leads, because Eric learned what every leader eventually does: you cannot build a whole culture from a fractured life. The Empty Chair turns what he learned into a system any leader can run.
Leaders are burning out. Teams are disconnected. And cultures that depend on one person collapse the day that person walks out the door. Eric shows you how to build something better, starting with yourself. You'll learn how to:
- Lead yourself first, so your presence matters at work and at home
- Build on the H.E.A.R.T. Framework: holistic growth, empowerment, alignment, relationships of trust, and transcendent vision
- Remove the friction that keeps good teams from their best work
- Give the spotlight away and grow a leadership bench that multiplies your impact
- Measure what the business can't see with the Inspired Growth Scorecard
- Build a culture strong enough to outlast you
In one year-long engagement, the system in this book helped cut voluntary turnover by 46 percent while leaders hit 92 percent of their OKRs. But this book was never really about the numbers. It is about the people behind them, and the chair that matters most.
With a foreword by Tim Storey, America's Comeback Coach.
Your people are waiting. Don't leave your chair empty.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
