How is your book helping others?
Most leadership approaches focus on how to lead others. CORE Leadership starts from a different premise: leadership starts with leading yourself. It helps leaders create a clear vision of the person and leader they want to be and gives them practical tools to put that vision into action. Through the four-step CORE framework, readers clarify what matters to them, translate it into everyday behaviors, recognize where they have choice, and evaluate the impact they are having. Readers have shared how the framework has helped them clarify their purpose, become more aware of their impact, see choices they hadn’t previously recognized, and make intentional changes in how they lead and live. As leaders become more intentional and exercise greater agency over how they show up, the impact extends beyond them, strengthening relationships, creating healthier teams and workplaces, and positively affecting the people they lead, work with, and live with.
