In the post-ENRON era, we are all searching for new pathways to inspirational leadership. Collective cynicism applies to the shared perception of today's CEO, many of whom have rightfully earned reputations for greed, power, dishonesty, and aggression. "The CEO Evolution" is about a very different kind of CEO, exquisite leaders, inspired men and women who have a mission far greater than their role.
Dr. Whitaker shares "success cameos" of brilliant leaders, the unsung CEOs of character, which are the basis of her study. She makes a strong case that they are successful because they have a rich inner experience, care about others, and bring their souls to work. The leaders interviewed demonstrate that the evolved executive's mission is not only about growth and profit. Their "meta-mission" is that of eliciting the best in others by inspiring and empowering them.
Dr. Whitaker offers strong evidence that inspirational leadership actually works better in today's market, as it will most certainly in future markets.
Many of the CEOs interviewed felt they were just "born to lead." It's not surprising that from over 75 participants, many share similar if not identical values, traits, and backgrounds. Find out if you were born to lead as well.
