In his bestselling book The Power of Positive Leadership, 18x bestselling author Jon Gordon teaches readers that we are not positive because life is easy; we are positive because life can be hard! Leaders are bound to face numerous obstacles, negativity, and tests, and there will be times when it seems as if everything in the world is conspiring against you—which is why positive leadership is essential.
In the revised and updated Second Edition, Gordon reminds readers that the research is clear: being a positive leader is not just a nice way to lead. It's the only way to lead if you want to build a great culture, unite your organization in the face of adversity, develop a connected and committed team, and achieve excellence and superior results.
This book teaches readers to:
Use love as the greatest leadership principle on the planet
Pursue excellence by being humble and hungry
Develop grit, embrace failure, ignore the critics, and do the work
The Power of Positive Leadership earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of all leaders in business and beyond seeking to get the best out of themselves and others.
JON GORDON is an 18-time bestselling author, top leadership speaker, and consultant who has worked with many of the top leaders and organizations on the planet. He impacts millions of people each year with his books, talks, podcasts, and messages. Visit him at JonGordon.com
