The Contemplative Leader: Uncover the Power of Presence and Connection

Featuring interviews with world-renowned leaders, from Richard Rohr (Founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation) to Margaret Wheatley (leadership consultant and author of Leadership and the New Science) to Matthew McCarthy (former CEO of Ben & Jerrys), The Contemplative Leader provides a framework for understanding how best to connect within and with those whom we lead. In The Contemplative Leader, leadership consultant, psychotherapist, and executive coach Patrick Boland combines leadership anecdotes, research and models with reflective questions and practical contemplative practices to outline: How to integrate your Whole Self into daily decision-making, influencing, and strategising, A redefinition and re-envisioning of leadership as something that takes account of the breadth of human experience, How to lead from a place of non-attached, contemplative presence. Whether you are a seasoned leader in need of a reset to connect with whats most important, new to leadership and looking for some 'soul' work to do to develop your influence, or just looking to integrate contemplative practices into your active roles in work, family, and religious life, The Contemplative Leader is an essential guide to practicing thoughtful leadership and contributing to meaningful change where it matters most to you.
