You'll never see leadership the same way again after reading this book. These 15 commitments are a distillation of decades of work with CEOs and other leaders. They are radical or provocative for many. They have been game changers for us and for our clients. We trust they will be for you too. Our experience is that unconscious leadership is not sustainable. It won't work for you, your team, or your organization in the long term.

Have you been in a situation where you spoke to someone, and they perceived you as aggressive even when you did not have an ounce of aggression in you? Have you been in a room where people only wanted to speak to one person, and you couldn’t figure out why the person received all that attention? More often than not, these things are because your communication method was poor, or rather, your delivery method. Without proper knowledge of how to communicate, you could speak to your boss and end up fired, or you could miss the opportunity to gain that client interested in your services.

Emotional intelligence is about knowing enough about your emotions that you are able to turn them into positive energy that enhances, as opposed to undermines, your work efficiency. You definitely will love learning about your emotions. You will know that the best place to start with dealing with others as a leader is from within yourself. Yet, as you understand yourself, you get ideas about others, and you can recognize their emotional states. This way, you can guide your employees on the same and path, too.
