How to Develop the Authentic Leader in You
We need to shift the current leadership paradigm: to move from the idea of exercising power over others to the practice of using your inner power to influence people. This requires a passionate commitment: to get access to our inner power, we need to get over ourselves first. Truly authentic leadership holds the power from within to create the deep transformation that today’s business world requires. A leader who leads from a place of authenticity “knows” himself: he has gone inward and knows his ego parts, conditionings, sabotaging behaviors, and wounds. He also knows his strengths, his power, his charisma, his essence. When you as a leader choose to invest in your own continuous inne...
Untamed Leadership
Instincts shape who we are as leaders. They encapsulate the social variety we exhibit to others, from the servant to the tyrant. Though they are integrated into our every thought and deed, we are relatively unaware of what they are or how they impact us. Perhaps the frenzied lives we lead are to blame, or maybe we spend too much time developing the veneer of leadership rather than excavating its core substance. No matter the cause, each day we are presented opportunities to make differences in the lives we touch. As we awaken to the reality that who we are on the inside has a direct role in what we project on the outside, we will have begun the process of apprehending Untamed Leadership.

Transforming Learning
Many authors have researched the connection between humor and education but as E .B. White said: “Analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog. Few people are interested and the frog dies of it. However, Dr. Peter Jonas takes a broad and practical approach examining the connection between humor and learning. The book uses a meta-analysis and meta-synthesis to identify nine areas where humor significantly improves various aspects of the learning environment. This book provides practical examples, as well as research on how much of an effect (effect size) humor has on Leadership, Learning, Stress reduction, Job Satisfaction, Relationships, Creativity, Culture, Communication, and Engagement. Humor needs to be taken seriously, because when you get people laughing you can transform learning.
