Reviews

Intentional Leadership provides powerful insights about the need to become conscious not only of your own authentic leadership style, but also of the range of personality types that you might need to lead. It demonstrates in practical step-by-step guidelines how the self-knowledge resulting from a type assessment can enhance a leader’s effectiveness in reaching organizational and personal goals. I recommend this resource to leaders at all levels in any organization, as well as to those who coach and mentor them.”
