Awakening the Leader Within guides readers through
the Six Seeds of Growth, which Cashman has used to help thousands
of business leaders change their personal and work lives for the
better. He draws on his renowned executive coaching techniques in
order to lead the reader on a path to self-discovery and personal
betterment. Based on the premise that you need to grow the person
in order to grow the leader, this inspirational and interactive
story centers on Benson Quinn, a CEO facing a deluge of personal
and professional crises. As Quinn confronts the defining moments of
his life, the reader learns valuable lessons about authentic and
purposeful leadership, applicable at home as well as in the
boardroom. At a time when issues of business ethics crowd the
headlines-causing many leaders to question whether profit should be
a leader's only goal-the practical applications of this book are
more timely than ever. Awakening the Leader Within has been
endorsed by more than thirty CEOs, thought leaders, and bestselling
authors.
