Successful leaders don’t rest on their laurels. Leadership must be a living process, not a title on a business card, and life means growth. As Ken Blanchard and Mark Miller write in the introduction, “the path to increased influence, impact, and leadership effectiveness is paved with personal growth.… Our capacity to grow determines our capacity to lead. It’s really that simple.” Great Leaders Grow shows leaders and aspiring leaders precisely which areas to focus on so they can remain effective throughout their lives.
Whether you're a CEO or an entry-level employee, this engaging business parable will inspire you to reflect on your life and design your own long-term growth plan—a plan that can lead not only to continuing professional success but to personal fulfillment as well. The book also features Resources to GROW, including a personal assessment and information on additional tools for personal and professional development.
"Continuing to grow has been the key to my success. It can be the key to yours, too, if you read this book."
~ Anthony Robbins, entrepreneur, author, and peak performance strategist
