“An unusually raw and revealing exploration of how our leadership journeys are shaped by the defining moments of our childhood..” — Adam Grant “If you want to be a better leader, or a better person, or both, read this book. A beautifully written, achingly honest account of why you can’t grow a business without growing yourself.” — Angela Duckworth “This book is filled with honesty, vulnerability, and insight. This book teaches us to be brave and pursue radical self-inquiry in an effort to get to know ourselves, to be truthful with ourselves, and to love ourselves. In this pursuit Jerry shines a light on a path that defines a healthier sense of what it means to be a leader. There are countless books offering various ways to become a better leader in the business world. But this is the only book with the insight and wisdom to offer a unique perspective: to be a better leader requires us to be a better human.”  — Bijan Sabet “Reboot is a tour de force – brilliant, brave and deeply emotionally resonant. It will inspire those who may sorely need, but don’t seek help, to act. Reboot is powerful, penetrating and psychologically masterful. It’s a gift.” — Dr. Rory Rothman
