Roving Leadership, Creating Choices for Meaning & Inspiration is the result of a lifetime of academic research, real life experiences and the privilege of being mentored for three years by Viktor Frankl. The stories of successful leadership are across the spectrum of the human experience. Much of traditional Leadership theory is too limited and exclusive based on leadership myths. Leadership is not static and merely owned by powerful and privileged persons. Leadership moves according to the needs and skills required to meet challenges. Roving Leadership creates purpose and inspiration in the most ordinary experiences. It focuses on creating the passion for one to find their voice in personal and career experiences. Free on Kindle.
