About the Book
The Self-Aware Leader is a practical framework for professional reinvention. Reinvention teaches leaders to look forward and anticipate evolving leadership practices rather than simply reacting to the peaks and valleys of professional life.
This presence of strong self-awareness teaches leaders to be intentional as means of creating both value and purpose. Leaders know why they want to reinvent and how it will add more value.
SAL teaches leaders to be proactive in order to identify opportunity – you see what you need before you actually need it.


This book fully presents a comprehensive model that teaches all leaders (and specifically middle managers) how to achieve professional reinvention. Readers will learn of a new mental framework for leadership and build a specific plan for putting this new mindset into daily practice. The practical and proven practices in this book create immediate opportunities to apply learnings.
