A paradigm- shattering new way to think about leadership, motivation, and happiness at work Most professionals wait for their managers to motivate and guide them in their careers. That's a mistake, says Peter Khoury in the Self-Leadership Guide. In this valuable and provocative new book, he asserts that the secret to satisfaction, motivation, and empowerment at work is self-leadership, the power to take charge of your career and guide it based on your self-leadership code. Drawing from years of executive coaching, Peter lays out a step-by-step approach to discovering what you want in a job aside from a paycheck. Then he explains how to set and pursue your career goals based on these criteria. The heart of Peter's methodology is the self-leadership code, a code most professionals never know. Once you understand it, you will be able to transform the way you look at your job, and to join the ranks of self-leaders in the workplace. You can take charge of your career based on what you want, and can even lead and manage the careers of others. After all, as Peter Khoury says, "Self-leadership is the essence of leadership."
