Description
**In today’s business world, we find ourselves in a conundrum: While there have never been so many books, blogs, speakers, and seminars on leadership, there remain relatively few truly great leaders. And companies are having difficulty finding and grooming the next generation to handle the demand of leading others in the fiercely competitive atmosphere and lightening fast pace of change that defines our era.
John Mattone has found a solution to this paradox through an approach that cuts right to the core of what holds leaders and aspiring leaders back from greatness. It’s what has made him the world’s top executive coach and drawn Fortune 500 CEOs–from the late Steve Jobs to PepsiCo’s Roger Enrico–to seek his counsel. Fortunately, Mattone’s secrets are no longer being shared exclusively in boardrooms and executive suites, but are now available to anyone who wants to unlock their leadership potential in his newest book, The Intelligent Leader.
It All Starts on the Inside
“John understands that truly great leadership always starts on the inside. More than that, John is a master of helping people discover and cultivate their innate leadership potential through advice that is both practical and profound. His new book beautifully illuminates the heart of great leadership through seven secrets that can have the biggest and brightest impact on the world.”
-Deepak Chopra, author, You Are the Universe
While many approaches to leadership development focus on sexy skills like creativity, strategic thinking, and decision-making, Mattone focuses on the subtle and hard to reach territory that lies below the surface. He calls this the “inner core” and has found that the strength of this deeper dimension of your self is what drives the “outer” capacities that so many are after.
In The Intelligent Leader, Mattone shows readers how to connect with and cultivate their inner core through what he calls the “7 dimensions of intelligent leadership”:
2. The Vulnerability Decision
3. Having a Mindset of Entitlement versus a Mindset of Duty
4. Leveraging Your Gifts and Addressing Your Gaps
5. Having the Courage to Execute with Pride, Passion, and Precision
6. Staying Present and Being Vigilant
7. Course Correction
Mattone dedicates a chapter to each of these dimensions and offers a variety of real world examples, tools, and assessments to show readers how to embrace and develop them**
