Have you ever been led by someone who cared for you like family,
and dared you to achieve more than you ever thought possible for
yourself, your organization, and even society?
Award-winning author of Hostage at the Table, George
Kohlrieser, along with his co-authors Susan Goldsworthy
and Duncan Coombe, explain how becoming a secure base leader
releases extraordinary potential in others.
Part of the Warren Bennis leadership series Care to Dare
shows you how to become a Secure Base Leader so that you release
your followers from the fears that get in the way of their
performance. It shows you how you can unleash astonishing potential
by building the trust, delivering the change, and inspiring the
focus that underpins sustainable high performance.
From extensive interviews with executives from all
over the world, as well as from surveys with more than a thousand
executives, the book reveals the nine characteristics that Secure
Base Leaders display on a daily basis. The research shows that a
primary difference between a successful leader and a failed leader
is the presence or absence of secure bases in his or her life.
Care to Dare will take you on a journey where you will
discover your own secure bases, past and present, and determine how
you can be a secure base for other people in your life at work and
at home.
