Publisher Description
Bestselling author and spiritual guide Deepak Chopra invites you to become the kind of leader most needed today: a leader with vision who can make that vision real. Chopra has been teaching leadership to CEOs and other top executives for eight years, and the path outlined in The Soul of Leadership applies to any business, but the same principles are relevant in every community and area of life, from family and home to school, place of worship, and neighborhood. With clear, practical steps, you are led through the crucial skills outlined in the acronym L-E-A-D-E-R-S:
L = Look and Listen
E = Emotional Bonding
A = Awareness
D = Doing
E = Empowerment
R = Responsibility
S = Synchronicity
After identifying your own soul profile and the core values you want to develop, you can use these seven skills to allow your potential for greatness to emerge. The future is unfolding at this very minute, and the choice to lead it lies with each of us, here and now.

"This is the best book on Leadership which I have ever read because it connects the inner consciousness and spirituality with a larger vision of a leader. This is the time for Leaders to reflect and become visionaries rather than being part of either a corporate or a political rut."
— Sandeep (5 out of 5 stars)
Quotes

I greatly enjoyed Deepak's newest book The Soul of Leadership. From the chapter on synchronicity on, I couldn't put it down. It's got so many quality ideas that it must be read a second time. The book inspired me to become a better leader.
— George Zimmer, Men's Wearhouse -
The Soul of Leadership unfolds as an exceptional guide for remembering how to access the peace and clarity the soul brings to any vision, decision, action, or non-action. Deepak Chopra’s latest book lights the way to 21st century leadership, where consciousness, love and compassion redefine the locus of power in relationships and organizations. A truly aware leader in touch with his or her soul will always be in the flow of the world. Like a tuned-in kayaker in white water, when you are in the middle of it, you continually contribute your own creativity and good intentions to the overall flow, while inspiring and empowering your team to do the same.
— John Mackey, co-CEO Whole Foods Market -
Leadership begins at home and in the heart. Deepak Chopra offers not only a blueprint, a step by step guide to releasing the power of leadership within each of us, but a powerful call to action. By evolving toward an ever higher level of spiritual awareness, we have the capacity to change our lives and the world itself. An insightful, inspirational and much needed book.
— William Cohen, Former United States Secretary of Defense
The Soul of Leadership Listener Reviews
-
" I found Deepak Chopra's book a little dull. I already know and practice things he suggests like "disagree but do not hold a grudge." He states "everything comes from the soul" is the same as "everything comes from your subconscious mind" that Dr. Joseph Murphy details in his great book. "
— Arminius, 1/12/2014 -
" Well worth the read! Practical learning and useful philosophies that we could apply to all areas of our lives. Borrowed it from the library... going to buy this for my bookshelf. "

" It was a good book.....a lot of deep thoughts but I suppose that's to be expected. "

" A lot of strong ideas, a thought provoking look at leadership. I will think of this one frequently as I felt very much in agreement with the emphasis of leadership qualities outlined in this book. "
— Lee, 1/1/2012 -
" There wer a couple of sections that were interesting, but all in all I was disappointed. "
— Laurie, 9/4/2011 -
" Chopra of course offers sage advice on leadership, but I found this lacking in the really, raw and incisive observations for which I was yearning. A good summary of some timeliness principles, no doubt, but not an earth-shattering treatise on leadership large or small. "
— Chad, 6/10/2011 -
" Not bad!If you've read a new earth or the power of now you can afford to skip this one book :-) "
