Book Overview
Are you a leader struggling to do better . . . to be better?
We all have in common the universal struggle to improve. Which is not just knowing your worst tendencies; it's also learning how to manage them. And that means grappling with yourself.
The engaging narratives in Grappling make the challenging work of self-improvement easier. Leadership consultant and author Robert E. Kaplan has written parables based on real people who represent a variety of leader archetypes. You will witness these leaders at work and at home-with their basic character in play, for good or ill-as they strive to improve. Whether you identify most with the combustible manager, the leader who had a painful childhood, the executive struggling with feedback, the general manager who takes too much responsibility, the successor to a founder, or any another leader in these pages-Grappling will impart these valuable lessons:
- Blind spots get in the way, and they're not easily removed.
- There is no better way to improve than to truly internalize your strengths.
- Fundamental change is possible.
- How to make good use of a professional.
If, like many of us, you want to-or have to-change in some way but find yourself stuck, Grappling makes the self-improvement quest relatable, inspirational, and within your reach.
