Sustainable Leadership : Sourcing and Multiplying Happiness

Sustainable Leadership: Sourcing and Multiplying Happiness acknowledges the desire of those in leadership-CEOs and other executives-to sustain their own positions as leaders and to bestow legacies upon those who follow and the societies in which they live. To that end, Jacob Thomas outlines and describes sustainable leadership, presents several novel frameworks that enable individuals to develop methods for practicing sustainable leadership, and suggests sets of self-assessment questions to guide one's personal reflection. In the course of its discussion, Sustainable Leadership describes how leaders can sustain their positions, cultivate insight, strengthen their inner selves, develop intention, consider context, show regard for followers, create strategy, act decisively, make an impact, analyze performance, engender wonder, and plan for the future. Ample numbers of illustrating figures and insight boxes highlight the key points of Sustainable Leadership. These features help any leader or researcher who seeks to appreciate, understand, and apply the insights of this approach to see clearly the main points to grasp when discerning the sources and the potential for multiplying happiness as a practitioner of sustainable leadership.
