A Wall Street Journal Bestseller
Experience explosive growth and success in your career and personal
life by taking ownership of your personal development and understanding
you don't need to know all the answers--but you do need to ask the right
questions.
Whether you're a leader of ten, a hundred, or many more, there's no one
more important to lead than yourself. If you're not leading yourself,
why would anyone else want to follow you? Ryan Leak speaks to thousands
of leaders every year, and he has learned that the most successful
people have taken ownership of their own development--and in order to
realize your potential, you need to fully understand yourself.
Being a great leader is not about having all the answers but asking the
right questions--and that starts with careful introspection and inviting
others to tell you what they see in you. Leveling Up helps you focus
on the person you're becoming and think about the goals you want to
accomplish. Some of the twelve strategic questions in this book include:
- What is it like to be around me? (The Self-Awareness Question)
- What credit can I give away? (The Team Player Question)
- Who knows who I really am? (The Transparency Question)
- What's my definition of success? (The Vision Question)
- Do I have to do it all? (The Rest Question)
- Am I enjoying it? (The Fun Question)
Leadership theory and business practices are important to study, but
nothing is better than discovering the answers that will reveal who you
are at your core, where you want to go in your career and life in
general, and how you can influence and impact those around you.
