Worse, they go to work, punching time clocks and collecting paychecks, while completely checked out emotionally.

Filled with dynamic examples, innovative tools, and diagnostic tests, this book shows you how to become a Reality-Based Leader, revealing how to:Uncover destructive thought patterns with yourself and othersDiffuse drama and lead the person in front of youStop managing and start leading, empowering others to focus on facts and think for themselvesEquipped with a facts-based, confident approach, you will free yourself from the frustrations you face at work and transform yourself into a Reality-Based Leader, with the ability to liberate and inspire others.
