Ego Free Leadership: Ending the Unconscious Habits that Hijack Your Bus

The Next Best Thing to Being There
I am a management consultant with a deep background in organizational change, so when I first had the opportunity to attend a workshop with Shayne and his colleagues at Learning As Leadership, I was skeptical about how much there was for me to learn there. Instead, I had a life-changing experience that has stayed fresh and relevant over many years, and which I have incorporated into my own approach to working with individuals and groups.This powerful approach to transformation can be hard to describe or explain to others. Its unique value lies in part in being different from the way most personal and group development work occurs. But now, thank goodness, we have Ego Free Leadership. Brandon and Shayne have come up with a way to demonstrate the difference that this approach can make through a real-world example, while giving as much insight into the methodology as I think you can get without directly experiencing the seminars and coaching.Ego Free Leadership offers insights about WHY we behave the way we do despite our best intentions, WHAT we specifically do to get in our own way, and what we can do to start to remove those barriers and obstacles to reaching our highest aspirations, and HOW to begin the journey to achieving that. It's a great book no matter where you are on your developmental path, and I highly recommend it to you.

An incredible book. By the looks of my copy ...
An incredible book. By the looks of my copy, you would think it was a text book from a class I just finished! Ink in all the margins and dog-eared throughout. I picked up a copy on my way out for a cross country flight with lots of time to read. WOW! Having read my fair share of business / motivational / success books, I probably started off with a tainted expectation of “probably another CEO” book. Boy was I wrong. And reading it once will not be enough. It holds true to the standard to teach me something and now turn my notes into actions.

I can imagine it being wonderful for families to read together
This is a book to be treasured. Although I am retired and therefore not now in an organizational leadership position, I find the book invaluable in meeting the challenges and opportunities of daily life. The book is about ego-free life, not merely leadership, and in addition to its utility in the workplace, I can imagine it being wonderful for families to read together, and life partners to share, and individuals to savor. As a psychologist, I find the concepts in this book academically and scientifically sound, and the authors' interpretations and advice wise and life-giving. Read this book!
