About the book…
Today, we have the benefit of a broad set of research only available in the last 25 – 30 years. This research comes from the fields of positive psychology, neuroscience, neuroleadership, along with the work from Gallup on strengths and employee engagement and more. The research has demonstrated that peak performance is only possible when people and organizations are in a positive state. The roots of our traditional leadership approach and HR practices were established in the early industrial era. They were built on compliance and control. The “great resignation” is a demonstration that the world is calling for a change. It has become increasing clear that the world of work needs to be transformed. What is needed is to create organizations where people can fearlessly collaborate, innovate and team with other talented people. This research coupled with the experiences of visionary leaders has shown us the path to bring this about. We need to unleash the talents of our people as opposed to controlling them. Organizations that create this type of environment will be magnets for top talent and will be able to retain this talent, leading to extraordinary organizational performance and success.
