Brand New:  The Inner Work of Leaders: Leadership as a Habit of Mind.  There is no script for being a great leader, and no way
to play act in the role. It’s the inner work that creates the difference between a manager and a leader.

Leaders who shine have the insight to examine their own lives--the influence of their families, the guidance of teachers, and the force of momentous events--and translate that information into habits of mind for persevering in the face of obstacles and instilling commitment and confidence in others.

In this bold, fresh approach to leadership, two psychologists profile more than 50 leaders who have leveraged the legacy of their life experiences into five powerful habits of mind to shape the way they think about, and respond to, challenges in their leadership.
