Aus dem Klappentext

"William tossed and turned as questions kept reappearing in his mind. Why didn't he enjoy his job anymore or get satisfaction from climbing the career ladder? Work used to be a pleasure, but right now there seemed to be more changes, demands and pressures than ever before. He didn't feel 'right' inside and couldn't put his finger on why."

William Cleverley has worked his way to the top with ambition and enthusiasm, but is now restless and losing sight of who he is. However, it's this sense of restlessness that gives him the energy to begin his journey of transformation.

The Restless Executive speaks to a growing challenge faced by today's leaders how to overcome feelings of unrest and frustration and lead, once again, with purpose. Through reflective questions and practical advice, you'll learn the power of staying true to yourself in every area of life.
