Are you Ready for the Next Step in Leadership Evolution? Stephen Covey taught us the habits of effective leaders. Eckhart Tolle exposed us to the land of awakening. Now, with Awakened Leadership, author Alan E. Shelton integrates these two worlds and sheds light on the hope of a life of leadership that encourages authentic living for the greatest impact.Awakened Leadership: Beyond Self-Mastery (ISBN: 978-0-9847125-0-2; LCCN: 2012901143; Hardback: 219 pages; Red Hatchet Press) gives leaders not only a map of pointers, but also an authentic story of the author's own journey through the awakening process.
Be led to understand that a life of leadership is beyond self-mastery – the belief that we author and control our own reality – to an awakening.
Walk away understanding that to be the most effective leader, you must all be more of who you already are.
Recognize and experience that your leadership essence can effortlessly manifest itself not only in the boardroom, but in all facets of life.
"The Unified Theory of Adult Development finally coalesced around the model of stages of adult development created by Robert Kegan [of Harvard].... Awakened Leadership stands on the shoulders of this body of work. At the same time, it cuts new ground in the leadership conversation. " ~ Bob Anderson, CEO of the Leadership Circle , from the foreword.
Author Alan E. Shelton says, "I had always believed that material success was the key to being happy and fulfilled. But then came the moment when I realized someone, or something, was seriously wrong. I felt empty and knew that all of the material success I had gained would never fill the hole I felt inside. It was then that I became possessed with the need to find whatever it as that would make me feel complete. Many seekers of truth will relate to this moment, and all can attest that this is the beginning of a process that is confusing and sometimes painful."
