Just like with the physical world, there are four fundamental forces of leadership—forces that quality leaders use to create transformative cultures. These forces are love, respect, service and fun. However, humans have the habit of inserting incompatible elements into their practice. With The Four Fundamental Forces of Leadership, the author will help you:

• Understand how these fundamental forces work within yourself, with others and through teams and organizations.
• Weave the forces into your own practice through how you interact with others and pushing to failure.
• Build teams and cultures grounded in the fundamental forces to drive long-term stability and success.
• Envision how to transform performance and success even in the most stressful of times.

The learnings in this book are so powerful that two Fortune 100 C-level leaders—John Mulligan, COO of Target Corporation and John Banovetz, CTO of a Minnesota manufacturing company—have written forewords for the book.
