Review

“Cashman has written his masterpiece.” (Change Management Monitor, May 2004)

“…This text is both a novel and a practical guide on how to become a much better leader, and even possibly a better person…” (Human Resources, April 2003)

Product Description

Kevin Cashman, one of the world's leading executive coaches, takes readers on a transformative journey to a new way of leading and a new way of living

"Once you start reading Awakening the Leader Within, you won't set it down. Cashman doesn't let you off the hook until you contemplate how you will live your life differently."
—Tom Debrowski, Executive Vice President, Worldwide Operations, Mattel, Inc.

Awakening the Leader Within guides readers through the Six Seeds of Growth, which Cashman has used to help thousands of business leaders change their personal and work lives for the better. He draws on his renowned executive coaching techniques in order to lead the reader on a path to self-discovery and personal betterment. Based on the premise that you need to grow the person in order to grow the leader, this inspirational and interactive story centers on Benson Quinn, a CEO facing a deluge of personal and professional crises. As Quinn confronts the defining moments of his life, the reader learns valuable lessons about authentic and purposeful leadership, applicable at home as well as in the boardroom. At a time when issues of business ethics crowd the headlines-causing many leaders to question whether profit should be a leader's only goal-the practical applications of this book are more timely than ever. Awakening the Leader Within has been endorsed by more than thirty CEOs, thought leaders, and bestselling authors.

Kevin Cashman (Minneapolis, MN) is the founder of LeaderSource, the nation's premier executive coaching consultancy. He has been featured in publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Fast Company, Harvard Management Update, and Human Resource Executive. He has also been a contributing editor to Executive Excellence magazine.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a GREAT leadership development read, April 19 2004
This review is from: Awakening the Leader Within: A Story of Transformation (Hardcover)
Cashman does a wonderful job integrating the challenge of business managemement with the host of challenges many of us face outside of work. Wow, this one really "hit home." The built in interactivity allows the reader to personally engage as the story unfolds. There were numberous times where I had to stop and really think how effective I have been leading my life vs. just leading the business. This book is both enjoyable to read and very profound.

This review is from: Awakening the Leader Within: A Story of Transformation (Hardcover)
It was phenomenal!  I read it in one sitting.  It was engrossing, thought-provoking and a very compelling look at business values.  I would love to see a series of such books on a variety of specific topics.  The fictional character interwoven with relevant teachings is a format that needs to continue.
