    About this audiobook

    From one of the world's preeminent leadership coaches, an insightful, indispensable guide to effective leadership.

    For the first time, leadership expert Jeffrey Hull shares the secrets, strategies, and science underlying his and his clients' successes. Interweaving real-life stories with practical tips and the latest evidence-based research, he equips listeners with the insights they need to thrive in today's world.

    We are in the age of the postheroic leader. Once, to move up the corporate ladder and succeed at the top, you simply had to set goals, motivate the troops, delegate to underlings, and groom a successor — probably one who looked and behaved just like you. But this white knight has become an anachronism. Whether a person is 25 or 50, if they're leading a team now, chances are that they're managing a kaleidoscope of people from a variety of cultures, across a range of ages, all of whom are wired together 24/7. These changing demographics and structures have led to a seismic shift in terms of the tools needed to successfully manage and grow within a company: Charisma and strategic thinking abilities now matter less than qualities such as vulnerability and relatability.

    Based on his popular classes with Harvard Medical School physicians and New York University business students, Hull has identified the six key elements that leaders in this new workplace need to succeed, known as F.I.E.R.C.E.: Flexibility, Intentionality, Emotional Intelligence, Realness, Collaboration, and Engagement. From start-ups to universities to Fortune 500 companies, he's been able to help leaders across the board develop the skill sets that have advanced their careers and won them accolades.
