Resumen del Editor

As leaders, we face difficult questions each day:

• What kind of leader do I want to be?
• How can I stay true to myself while also meeting the expectations of others?
• How best can I handle the most challenging leadership situations?
• How can I accept this uncomfortable and sometimes painful truth: no matter what I do, and no matter how hard I try, someone will likely be upset with my choices and actions?

Expansive Impact helps answer these questions and will empower you to handle the stickiest leadership situations, feel more confident as a leader, and create significant positive change without relying on outside forces or external circumstances. With fresh language, powerful inquiries, and a nuanced exploration of the often opposing tensions we hold as leaders, this book is a compelling and insightful guide to improving your leadership and your life.

Modern management approaches balanced with traditional leadership principles

The modern workplace is chuck full of myriad novel challenges from remote/hybrid team work to rampant political polarization. Sarah M. Young tackles these challenges directly with time-tested advice - get to know your team, forgive yourself for mistakes, make time to clear your head, lead with a firm hand but remain compassionate to your colleagues, customers, and counterparts. Young meshes together older management ideas from Stephen Covey and Dale Carnegie with modern workplace success experts like Adam Grant and Csikszentmihalyi in a brilliant book that is just what the doctor ordered during a time of rapid transition in the workplace.

Young uses meaningful personal anecdotes to show how management is a personal craft which requires practice and flexibility. She mentions good ideas to improve your focus and inner calm, but she doesn’t pretend that all of our problems can be solved with meditation or the next wellness craze.

The booked is grounded in thoughtful self-reflection and provides practical suggestions that apply to the first year new hire or the veteran manager nearing retirement.
