The Through Line
Practical Inspiration Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-78860-683-7 (ISBN)
As leaders, we navigate a multitude of lines – reporting lines, dotted lines, bottom lines, deadlines. Yet amidst this web, there is one line that defines our leadership journey: our through line.
What is a through line? Your through line is the psychological core of your leadership story, the golden thread that connects who you are with how you lead. It links your decisions with what matters to you. As you face forward, understanding it provides an anchor in the face of uncertainty. As you uncover it, you discover that understanding who you are is instrumental in unlocking the impact of how you lead.
Discover a three-part framework – reach in, reset, reach out – designed to uncover your through line. Through practical exercises, you’ll identify the essence of your leadership. Through case studies and scientific research you’ll understand why this matters. Armed with this clarity, you’ll navigate change with confidence, lead with intention and inspire those around you. Because intentional leadership begins with clarity, purpose, and the courage to lead from within.
‘This book is a great guide to rediscover, renew and celebrate the genuine.’ - Ruth Dearnley OBE, President and Founder, STOP THE TRAFFIK
'If you want to connect who you are with how you lead, this book offers the clarity and heart to get you there.’ HÉLÈNE BIANDUDI HOFER, Journalist
