Publisher's Synopsis
Leading with Motivation is your practical and honest guide to staying energized as a leader-especially on the hard days.
This book is for leaders at every level-whether you're new in your role, managing teams, or a seasoned executive. It offers practical advice, psychological insights, and real-life examples of how to keep your motivation alive-even after a difficult conversation, a day full of meetings, or when facing self-doubt.
Through 20 connected chapters, you'll explore what leadership looks like during tough moments: after layoffs, after being criticized, after isolating days behind a screen. And most importantly, you'll learn how to get back on track with purpose, presence, and resilience.
With tools inspired by Deci & Ryan's self-determination theory, Brené Brown's vulnerability research, and practical frameworks like 3x3-motivation and the STOP model, this book offers grounded, reflective guidance for everyday leadership.
It's not about being perfect. It's about being human-and choosing to show up with clarity and care, again and again.
