You already have what you need to lead: now learn to tap into your experience, your history, your future, your story. There is an element of dog sledding that mimics life’s antics. You get on the trail with an idea of where you are going, you experience the joys of connecting with your team, you run into some obstacles, take risks, possibly a wrong turn, and exert incredible effort to reach your goal.
This book explores career and life transitions by uncovering the often-elusive trail markers that point the way toward your desired destination. A trail marker is a confluence of your experiences, ideas, motivations, values, and desires flowing together to form your personal trail. If you’re someone who inquires and refuses to settle for the status quo, actively seeking improvement in your life, then this book is for you.
Today’s leaders will find this book a valuable book to guide the development of high-potential employees. Use it as a subject to open critical discussions to lay a path for their success.
