Stew Friedman is the founder of Total
Leadership. He is an innovator in both the
leadership development and work/life fields.
A faculty member at the Wharton School since
1984, in 1991 he founded both the Wharton
Leadership Programs and the Wharton Work/Life
Integration Project. He created the Total
Leadership program in the late '90s while he
was a senior executive at Ford Motor, where
he was responsible for leadership development
worldwide.
Now more than ever, your success as a leader
isn't just about being a great
businessperson. You've got to be a great
person, performing well in all domains of
your life — your work, your home, your
community, and your private self. The good
news is that, contrary to conventional wisdom
about "balance," you don't have to assume
that these domains compete in a zero-sum
game. Total Leadership is a game-changing
blueprint for how to perform well as a leader
not by trading off one domain for another,
but by finding mutual value among all four.
With engaging examples and clear instruction,
Friedman provides more than thirty hands-on
tools for using these proven principles to
produce stronger business results, find
clearer purpose in what you do, feel more
connected to the people who matter most, and
generate sustainable change. Tags : Stew Friedman Authors@google atgoogle Leading@google Leadership Total |
