Leading-Edge Leader™: Leading Self

Book One in the Leading-Edge Leader™ series by Dillon Marcus

Today's leaders need to think more strategically, communicate more persuasively, and adapt to changes in the marketplace — all while developing the leadership capabilities of those around them.

The leading edge of an airplane wing has a purpose: it creates lift. The same is true for leaders and leadership teams — their purpose is to create “lift” of their own. Leading-Edge Leader™: Leading Self is the first book in the series, an alive, dynamic, experiential platform where leaders venture out to the leading edge of thought to discover the principles and practices that create that lift throughout an organization.

This first installment maps to the “Self” segment of the Leading-Edge Leader™ framework — grounded in purpose & values, knowing your skills & strengths, and building high emotional intelligence. Before a leader can develop others or move an organization, they have to lead themselves first.

Who It's For

Executives, senior leaders, and high-potential managers ready to build a portfolio of world-class leadership skills — starting with the self-awareness and discipline that everything else is built on.

What You Can Expect

  • Confirm your skills and strengths
  • Learn how you're perceived by others — your brand
  • Learn what stops you, and how to move past those blocks
  • Employ strategies for improving performance, managing your image, and increasing your exposure
  • Learn a proven, practical method for becoming more emotionally intelligent
  • Understand the importance of overall wellness, including mental fitness

Why "Leading-Edge"?

The name comes from aviation: the leading edge of an airplane wing is what generates lift. In the same way, the Leading-Edge Leader™ program — and this book, its first installment — is built to give individual leaders, and the organizations they lead, that same kind of lift.

“Authenticity is not a thing to acquire. It is someone we become over time. … New doors open up for us.”

— Evan Marcus
