Synopsis A Passion to Lead by : Jim Calhoun
Motivation...Success...Leadership...Passion. Hall of Fame college basketball coach Jim Calhoun shares his secrets for success for the first time ever in A Passion to Lead. Coach Jim Calhoun is one of the most successful coaches in college basketball history. Having sent countless players to the NBA, Coach Calhoun is known for producing not just great athletes but great human beings. He is both an exceptional leader and self-made man whose ability to motivate and inspire young men is unsurpassed. In A Passion to Lead, he shares the fundamental principles that have allowed him to have an impact on so many. When he took command of the Connecticut Huskies, the team had had a losing record for five straight seasons. In twenty-one years of leadership, Calhoun has transformed a middling regional program into a national powerhouse with two NCAA championships. But what makes Coach Calhoun such an excellent leader? How did he take a program with a modest tradition and turn it into a national champ and perennial title contender? What is his management style? What are his motivational techniques? Calhoun reveals them here and includes anecdotes about his life as a coach, family man, and, ultimately, a teacher--as well as the following key principles: *Win Every Day: Talent determines what you can do in life. Motivation determines what you decide to do. Attitude determines how well you do it. *Standards, Then Victories: To build a winning organization, establish a culture of winning and make everyone accountable. Out of high standards come victories. *Tough Love: Pushing is only half the equation. Individuals perform best when they feel good about themselves. *And much more. A Passion to Lead is for all those who are serious about making their dreams a reality. It's a motivational tool for achieving success both at work and in life, and it can help turn any adversity into an advantage.

Synopsis The Passion Paradox by : Brad Stulberg
The coauthors of the bestselling Peak Performance dive into the fascinating science behind passion, showing how it can lead to a rich and meaningful life while also illuminating the ways in which it is a double-edged sword. Here’s how to cultivate a passion that will take you to great heights—while minimizing the risk of an equally great fall. Common advice is to find and follow your passion. A life of passion is a good life, or so we are told. But it's not that simple. Rarely is passion something that you just stumble upon, and the same drive that fuels breakthroughs—whether they're athletic, scientific, entrepreneurial, or artistic—can be every bit as destructive as it is productive. Yes, passion can be a wonderful gift, but only if you know how to channel it. If you're not careful, passion can become an awful curse, leading to endless seeking, suffering, and burnout. Brad Stulberg and Steve Magness once again team up, this time to demystify passion, showing readers how they can find and cultivate their passion, sustainably harness its power, and avoid its dangers. They ultimately argue that passion and balance--that other virtue touted by our culture--are incompatible, and that to find your passion, you must lose balance. And that's not always a bad thing. They show readers how to develop the right kind of passion, the kind that lets you achieve great things without ruining your life. Swift, compact, and powerful, this thought-provoking book combines captivating stories of extraordinarily passionate individuals with the latest science on the biological and psychological factors that give rise to—and every bit as important, sustain—passion.

Synopsis Fresh Passion Leadership by : Michael D Brown
In an era of economic uncertainty, layoffs, high unemployment and underemployment, and hiring freezes, creating and promoting a top-flight personal brand that stands out in the crowd is more important than ever. Furthermore, no matter what level position you are seeking, companies want to hire, invest in and promote proven branded leaders – people who exude confidence and authority through their mastery of important branded skills that delivers world-class results individually and through and with people. In this case study of Michael D. Brown’s two years spent showing leaders of a Fortune 5 oil and gas company how to become distinct branded leaders instead of extinct generics, Michael D. Brown shows you how to employ his unique and proven Fresh PASSION methodology to build a personal brand that will maximize your potential and help you to achieve success beyond your dreams in whatever field you choose. Fresh PASSION is the pathway to outperform and outshine your peers and competitors and obtain the professional and personal rewards you deserve, in a manner that will encourage people to follow your lead with passion, conviction and determination without being asked (or begged). Brown outlines both the Fresh PASSION method and how he applied it in this particular situation with easy-to-follow detail, personal assessments and an interactive action guide that will lead to you developing, enhancing and positioning your personal brand for exponential personal, professional and economic success. You will discover how longtime employees left behind their “generic” ways of thinking and conducting business to create an entire experience they could present to employers, bosses, clients, and co-workers that left them begging for their services and produced double-digit top- and bottom-line results for the company and their clients. This process positioned them as sought-after brands in the organization and lead to them earning record financial compensation, consistent recognition and promotions. With Fresh PASSION, they avoided the pitfalls of a generic career and instead obtained the benefits and leadership credentials that come from being a branded entity.
