The Secure Leader
Discover the Hidden Forces that Shape Your Leadership Story—and How to Change Them
Recommendation
From infancy onward, people’s brains generate stories to help them navigate and adapt to daily living. As Jaime Goff writes, many of those stories remain unconscious, yet they influence people’s lifelong behavior. For example, leaders whose early “dominant attachment” stories reflect security are more confident and better attuned to others than those who are insecure, often due to childhood neglect. As Goff explains, such people may need to rewrite the histories embedded in their brains. To help you understand her broad psychological suggestions for improving your leadership capabilities by addressing your internal story, Goff provides illuminating exercises that personalize the process.
