Leadership Beyond Influence
Leadership is one of the most discussed topics in life endeavors – family, community, schools, religious settings, organizations, public institutions, and international relations – but the least understood. Despite the plethora of avenues or programs for teaching leadership or propagating leader and leadership development, our world is replete with scores of bad or ineffective leaders. The search for good or effective leadership remains elusive largely because leadership is conceived from the framework of influence. This concept of leadership as influence has created and still creating manipulators and power-drunk individuals rather than responsive systems and strong institutions that enhance the values of people in societies.
Leadership Beyond Influence is based on a model – ‘The Leadership Pearls’ – a curation of pearls from extensive research and experiences that unveil the secret of effective leadership. The leadership pearls provide the compass to cultivate effective leadership and attain significance. The book posits that leadership is not a mystery to be unraveled but a purpose to be lived. It provides simple but unimpeachable steps to discover and fulfill one’s purpose.
