Heart-Centered Leadership: An Invitation to Lead From the Inside OutSusan Steinbrecher and Joel B. Bennett
 Description and Reviews From The Publisher: Providing a counterpoint to the ethical bankruptcy of contemporary business, Heart-Centered Leadership champions the message that sound ethical practices must begin from within. This kind of leadership is a personal choice and involves the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. Through the application of seven underlying principles and virtues, the authors describe a clear path: from the moment you are inspired to be a heart-centered leader through the process of developing the healthy attitudes and responsive actions needed to convert your inspiration into reality. This focus- an inward, mindful striving to do the right thing and become the best person you can be - sets this path to leadership apart from other strategies. Full of interviews with leaders, examples drawn from diverse business, reference tools, scientific data, and exercises to aid in the actualization of these principles and values, Heart-Centered Leadership goes beyond theory to help you assimilate this knowledge into your life. Reviews "This book cracks the code. Leadership happens on the inside, where everyone is sure it isn't and not the outside where everyone is sure it is." —Robert E. Quinn, M.E. Tracy Distinguished Professor of Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management at the University of Michigan Business School and author of Change the World and Deep Change. "Heart-Centered Leadership is both accurate and compelling, centering in on an essential issue for today. Executives, managers and employees alike need to come to grips with the timeless message: Once executives take care of themselves, they are in a much better position to lead others. Most importantly, the message of this book clarifies the cost when executives and leaders fail to take care of themselves. It need not be that way, and Steinbrecher and Bennett have charted a better path... for executives, for leaders in all walks of life and for the rest of us. The delight of this book is its focus on leading with virtue and the authors' ability to make the case well for a heart-centered approach, in contrast to management and traditional leadership practices." —James Campbell (Jim) Quick, Professor of Organizational Behavior; Director, Doctoral Program in Business Administration, Center for Research on Organizational and Managerial Excellence, University of Texas at Arlington, and author of "The Financial Times Guide to Executive Health"  Reader's Index Send us your favorite quotes or passages from this book.
