Publisher Description

The best selling Leading with Soul is a contemporary parable chronicling the journey of a beleaguered executive's quest for passion and purpose in work and in life. Leading with Soul teaches that the heart of true leadership can only be found in the heart of a leader. The authors draw upon a diverse mix of many of the world's spiritual traditions, poetry, philosophy, teachings on leadership, and their own extensive consulting experience to offer inspiration and guidance for today's leaders.

True to the essence of leadership, Bolman and Deal offer an invitation to participate with them in understanding the ties that bind spirituality and leadership together. Interludes between the story chapters explore the everyday application of lessons learned along the way and provide practical ways to get the most from work and life.

"Marvelous read. Really connected with my heart and soul and gave some great examples at it followed an executive through his struggle to take his company and life to the next level. They are both intertwined clearly and one cannot excel without the other in order."
