Synopsis
Today's leaders have to accomplish more than ever before--and they are expected to get it all done at a breakneck pace. Decisions must be made without delay, results must be rapidly achieved. There is neither mandate nor tolerance for slowing down to think. There's inadequate time to ensure that you're heading in the right direction, building on success and setting yourself and your organization up for maximum outcomes. The results range from ineffective to mediocre to disastrous. In over a decade's work as a leadership expert, advising some of the world's most accomplished Fortune 500 executives, and nearly 20 years as a clinical psychologist, helping people live more successful and fulfilling lives, the author has seen the remarkable impact of slowing down to pause, think, plan... and then act.
