Publisher's Synopsis
Great leaders and teams don't know everything, and they don't get it right every time. What sets them apart is their commitment to continual learning and vertical growth. Vertical growth is about cultivating the self-awareness to see our self-defeating thoughts, assumptions, and behaviors, and then consciously creating new behaviors that are aligned with our best intentions and aspirations. By embracing the deliberate practices and processes for vertical growth laid out in this book, you'll not only radically improve your leadership and personal wellbeing--you'll also foster the highest levels of trust, psychological safety, motivation, and creativity in the teams and groups you work with. You'll to discover how to: identify when, where, and how to develop new leadership behaviors to get better results; regulate your emotional responses in real time and handle the most difficult challenges with balance, wisdom, and accountability; cultivate practices for self-awareness that foster lifelong internal growth and personal happiness; uncover and change the limiting assumptions and beliefs that keep you, your team, and organization locked in unproductive habits and behaviors; and create practices and rituals that enable the highest levels of psychological safety, innovation, and growth.
