Expand: Leadership that moves, fulfills and changes the world.

By Shannon Graham

The expectations of leadership have turned your dream into a nightmare. Fear and uncertainty are ruling your every decision, and a bottom-line focus is driving your behavior and identity. Your family life and the organization are both suffering. There is little or no depth to your work, and the impact once defined by your vision is all but gone. You feeling the walls of the leadership box closing in, and the pressure is almost insurmountable.From an external perspective, you have an organization that works, though the internal culture falls far short of what it could be. You've lost sight of who you are and where you are going, and everyone can feel it. Growth, desire and happiness have become insignificant, washed aside in the overwhelming linear drive for achievement.Leadership began as our servant, though as it became institutionalized, it transformed into something we became a servant to. The success focus of the mainstream model is a zero-sum-gain realized without compassion for people or concern for positive global impact. Leadership is broken because it's one-dimensional and non-inclusive of some of the most fundamental aspects of being a great leader.We're all pioneers, but we're doing it in a non-excellent model with non-excellent methodologies. Try as you might, you will not discover limitless happiness and fulfillment until you break free and change the game. We need to regain the essence of what leadership is, and re-humanize the model.No longer can you live in a bottom-line-driven-box, and operate by unrealistic expectations for who and what a leader should be. It's time to deinstitutionalize and revolutionize leadership to have it once again be our servant; because when you transpose innovative, rebellious action into a limitless new era model, you get exponential growth.Leadership has to be about developing ourselves, because an organization can only expand in direct relation to the expansion of the founder. EXPAND: The World-Changing Art of Irresponsible Leadership covers both the inner game discipline and outer game systems required to be fulfilled and commercially successful at the same time. Success Mentor, Shannon Graham has a reality-shifting vision centered around "The Expanded Leader" - one who leads from wholeness and overflow, rather than emptiness and sacrifice. The result is an organization built as a function of the leader's wholeness, potential and full expression.From the depth of these founding elements comes the creation of a culture that leads to even more richness, innovation and creativity. The resultant shift transcends the organization to have global impact - transforming competition into collaboration, and helping leaders realize the fulfillment that comes from having amazing experiences in and of their own lives.Leadership is not intended to be a restrictive box that imprisons you; it is intended to be a framework for expansion for both the leader and the organization. Reading this book is about making a decision to raise your standards and to raise your ceiling for what you believe is possible. When you do, your vision expands, and the ceiling become the floor.
