Maybe it s in your workplace, or in your relationships, or simply in your own life. But great leadership leadership that aligns teams, inspires action, and achieves results is hard. And what makes it hard isn t theoretical, it s practical. It s not about knowing what to say or do. It s about whether you re willing to experience the discomfort, risk, and uncertainty of saying or doing it. In other words, the most critical challenge of leadership is emotional courage. If you are willing to feel everything, you can do anything.

It s what sets great leaders apart from the rest. It gets results. It cuts through the distractions, the noise, and the politics to solve problems and get things done. This book is packed with actionable steps you can take to start building these skills now.
