Please briefly describe the book?

Hardwired To The Heart is intended to help others discover their own self-awareness as we differentiate the impact of an influential leader versus the authoritative leader. It is intended to encourage the reader to self-reflect on the reality of their past and present in search of a couple of gold nuggets that enable how others experience them as an authentic servant leader as we seek never ending continuous improvement. The proactive intent is to drive an awareness that as responsible selfless leaders we have a moral duty to serve others as a community of human beings with hearts minds and souls with heartfelt Kindle Addicts feelings just like you and me. When our inner hearts drive our authentic outer being we have every opportunity to build trust with each other and a loyalty so strong we won’t let each other down. Hardwiring what we already know and what we learn our heart and then expressing them through careful actions and words in the workplace is the key, treating your peers and subordinates as people first and coworkers second. The question is how? This is a book that encourages how do exactly that through seven core competencies accompanied by activation exercises that will encourage how others experience you in an authentic and genuine way.

What inspired you to write this book?

During my career, it is the people I care so much about both personally and professionally who encouraged me to have the vulnerable courage to write this book. With the support of my wonderful personal and business family, friends, and other business associates who are also amazing friends, I was inspired to write a book with the intent to encourage all levels of leadership and teammates to learn and serve each other while building trust and loyalty with every interaction in service of each other as human beings. Others are aware of my passion for servant leadership, and I can only hope the experiences they had with me were the selfless evidence I was always committed to a life in service of them and others.

How do you make sure the information for your nonfiction books is accurate and up to date?

To the best of my ability, it was important for me to reflect on my 38 years of leadership with true real-life stories and examples of the impact on human emotion, both my own as well as others. In other words, really tap into myself and what I learned both personally and professionally. I like to think of my career as a learning career, whereby all my experiences both personally and professionally had some profound impact on how I “worked forward” with the impact of the meaning of those experiences. I would add that the certifications with Marshall Goldsmith, Stagen Integral Learning, Church and bible study classes, and Enneagram Training and The Life Coach Training Institute were not just certifications, they are also communities of amazing people whereby those learnings, and practices are never in neutral. They provide on-going opportunities to learn and grow. They also consistently encourage us to take what we learn to the world with a conscious capitalism mindset. In my case, what I have learned and will continue to learn encourages me to serve my higher purpose in service others both personally and professionally.
