The Tao of Personal Leadership by Diane Dreher

The Tao of Personal Leadership by Diane Dreher

Say good-bye to the adversarial samurai managerial principles of the last decade. A new philosophy is sweeping the business world, one that's more in tune with a global marketplace, where cooperation, not competition, is the key to success.aThe author of The Tao of Inner Peace combines the ancient wisdom of the Tao Te Ching with lessons from successful leaders, past and present, to provide us with new approaches to conflict resolution, community building, empowerment and growth, and renewal. The Tao of Personal Leadership explains the basic Taoist principles readers can use to make the most of their resources, transcend conflict, transform problems, adapt to change, and enrich their business, community, and personal lives. The book shows how we can all become not just good managers but great leaders, courageous and resourceful individuals who make leadership an art: challenging and inspiring those around us to fulfill humanity's highest potential.
