Greetings!
I'm writing with information you can use and ideas for how you can be part of a learning community and coaching network dedicated to making things better for you, your family, your work, and your community and society.
 
Despite the crushing economic news -- indeed, perhaps because of it -- in my travels I'm discovering that more and more people are committed to finding new and meaningful ways to clarify what matters most, respect the ones about whom they care deeply in the different parts of their lives, and experiment with creative ways to enrich lives; to pursue what, in my book, I call four way wins.
 
This is Total Leadership's purpose:  To improve performance in all parts of life by finding mutual value among them.  As tens of thousands around the world have found out, Total Leadership is practical, sustainable, and fun.      
 
Total Leadership Online -- Read. Watch. Participate.
  • People tell us they love our Web site -- especially the free videos and performance tools.  Please visit and share it with your friends, colleagues, family; anyone who wants to improve performance in all domains of life. 
  • My blog, about how to be a better leader and have a richer life, draws insights from the business world, popular culture, sports, and my personal experience.  Recent posts include leadership lessons from Barack Obama, Neil Young, and Batman; a eulogy for my friend and mentor, Joel DeLuca; what I learned at Google; and more.  I hope you read it and join the conversation.   We need to hear your voice!  Subscribe to my blog here.
