The Invisible Leader
Transform Your Life, Work, and Organisation with the Power of Authentic Purpose
The Best Leaders Aren’t People. Instead, innovative and emerging research shows that a compelling and other-centered authentic purpose–The Invisible Leader–may be the most powerful influencer of our behaviours, attitudes, and motivation in organisations, work, school, and life.
Yet despite the increasing evidence of purpose’s power, many of the organisations, systems, and institutions which dominate human life aren’t built to elicit and leverage the fundamental human search for purpose and meaning.
In this must-read book for anyone who considers themselves a leader, international speaker, trainer, and organisational performance scholar Zach Mercurio shows business leaders, educators, students, athletes, and parents how to AWAKEN, CLARIFY, and DELIVER their reason for existence–their authentic purpose.
Personal, researched, and even mind-shifting, the tools in the The Invisible Leader will help you lead with authentic purpose and build a life and organisation that matters.
