The Pinocchio Principle - Becoming the Leader You Were Born to Be
Diane Bolden
 
 

Do you ever feel constrained by something that keeps you from being all that you are?
The Pinocchio Principle - Becoming the Leader You Were Born to Be          

Perhaps you are in...
... a culture that seems to rein you in,
... a situation you feel you cannot rise above,
... or uncertainty that keeps you from your greatest work.

Maybe you are on the verge of accomplishing something extraordinary but have run smack into your own fears, doubts and insecurities about whether you have what it takes to succeed or if achieving your goal is even possible.

In any case, breaking free requires that you transcend many of your beliefs about who you should be to become who you really are.

As you face your fears, give life to your visions and dreams, and courageously take on the challenge of being real, you will exercise true leadership in your own life and that of others - regardless of your vocation, title or role.

The Pinocchio Principle is a road map to help you navigate the perils and possibilities of your personal odyssey. Using Pinocchio as a metaphor, it blends wisdom, inspiration and humor and includes numerous stories and examples of personal and professional transformation as well as practical tips and tools that will help you become a true leader to others - in the only way possible: by starting with yourself.

A portion of the proceeds from The Pinocchio Principle goes to the Center for Humane Living, a remarkable organization whose vision is to inspire all people to live peaceful and compassionate lives while implementing a fully humanitarian agenda.

"This book is a must read for leaders, managers and anyone who wants to bring out their best and the best in others. Heartfelt, wise and powerfully written, The Pinocchio Principle speaks to the deep yearning within us to be free of limitations and live from our greatest potential.

I couldn't put it down!"
