A Self-Leadership Coaching Guide Challenges the Status Quo
About The Book
A new perspective on leadership and the essential behaviours that create a valuable leader is unveiled in Alpesh Fadia’s book (workshops and online programs) entitled The 5 Behaviors of Effective Personal Leadership…For Ascension to Public Leadership – A Self-Coaching Guide. Based on personal experience and research, Alpesh (a leadership & strategy consultant) focuses on the steps needed to become a self-leader. Personal leadership represents an all-important and rock-solid foundation that is often overlooked, but necessary for every individual who is and aspires to become and achieve success as a public leader (those who lead team members)
The main downfall and gaffes of past and modern era leaders are a result of a lack of emphasis on effective personal leadership. Few books and training courses on leadership give attention to the significance of being a personal leader. In fact, many only emphasize self-awareness (at a superficial level), which is just one of the five crucial behaviors required to become a comprehensive and an effective self-leader. Alpesh therefore has proposed the essential pillars of personal leadership to help solve the leadership dilemma through his instructive and engaging personal guide.
Learning to be an effective personal leader can help eliminate many of the unnecessary self-induced problems we have created, including a severe economic downturn, loss of morals, respect, and value for fellow beings. Learning from my own experiences, self-leadership offers a unique opportunity to establish that solid foundation absent in many individuals. Becoming that effective personal leader can then help people turn into valuable (those who are responsible, conscious, genuine, trustworthy, and effective) public leaders we so desperately need today and for many generations thereafter to avoid another global leadership crisis and its associated consequences from recurring.
