As a busy leader, I realize your time is very valuable. I wrote Leading Well from Within to help you make the most of your time, showing you how to first reduce your reactivity when it does more harm than good, and then leveraging your stress energy into high-performing states of creativity, so you can become a Conscious Leader to more fully live your most meaningful life.

But even more, I hope it will inspire you to immerse yourself in the book, using this summary as a companion, to master the shift from reactivity to creativity in any circumstance. This skill alone will put you in the top echelon of high-performance leaders, allowing you to shift from success to significance as you transform yourself, your business, your family, your community, and even the world!
