Synopsis

This audiobook reveals the three most important capabilities leaders must demonstrate today: the ability to set strategy, empathize with others, and take risks—all at the same time. In Head, Heart, and Guts, leadership experts David Dotlich, Peter Cairo, and Stephen Rhinesmith—who teach and coach CEOs and executive teams throughout the world—argue that to be successful in a complex, matrixed, fast-moving world, “whole” leaders must set strategy, develop trusting relationships with others, and consistently do the right thing based on personal values. “Partial” leaders, often the product of traditional executive programs, may be successful in the shortrun, but their companies lose over time. Filled with case studies of companies such as Bank of America, Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, and UBS, Head, Heart, and Guts, lays out specific steps and actions for leaders who want to grow beyond their “leadership comfort zone” and an action plan for companies that want to move beyond tried-and-true leadership development in order to develop “whole” leaders throughout their leadership pipeline.

Goodreads review by Kyle

My favorite business and leadership books are the ones whose thesis is so simple that it can only make me say “Duh!”. However, an almost naively simple thesis isn’t enough. It needs to be structured into a manner that allows me to take that simple thesis and flex it in ways more condusive to my own......more

Goodreads review by Pupsi

Whilst nobody would have an issue with the sentiments in the book that it is essential to have a mix of analytical, compassion and guts this book did not engage and was full of anecdotal elements. Like some poorer books this book read like the author had a theory (and a consultancy business) and has......more
