(1) Leadership on the ‘Edge’ and (2) [No more] Hating Presentations

Speaking of superb big ideas, at long last…Bea Fields’ much-anticipated new book, EDGE! A Leadership Story, is out. Bea is one of those very special individuals worth paying attention to, in my opinion.

Using a provocative approach, the book delivers a powerful message about authenticity, courage and human development through the engaging story of a modern day leader, Mitchell James, his team and his executive coach, Kate Nelson.

Those of you working in corporations AND interested in innovative ways to convey an intellectual message in an emotionally impactful way, click the cover to the right and have a look at the book more closely.

Congratulations to Bea for another great addition to the coaching compendium of tools.
