Leadership is an interactive conversation that pulls people toward becoming comfortable with the language of personal responsibility and commitment.
“Everyday Leadership is a treasure chest of engaging stories, practical tips, and rich insights into how we each can make a difference in the world when we take responsibility for the personal power that we have. It’s a must-read, because once you’ve taken Everyday Leadership to heart you’ll leave this world a little bit better than you found it.”
—Jim Kouzes, Co-author of The Leadership Challenge
Self-directed learning helps you to discover an ideal vision of yourself to feel motivated in developing the abilities necessary to get you where you want to be. That is, you see the person you want to be---living with the capability necessary to create and sustain the new you. This becomes the source of the energy required to work at the difficult and often frustrating process of change.
"The crux of leadership development that works is self directed learning -- intentionally developing or strengthening an aspect of who you are or who you want to be, or both." Primal Leadership by Daniel Goleman, Richard Boyatzis & Annie McKee (Harvard Business School Press)
