This is one of the most unique and valuable books you will read all year, and I highly recommend it.

-Jim Kouzes, coauthor of the bestselling and award-winningThe Leadership Challengeand Dean’s Executive Fellow of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University

Even the best leaders-in fact, most of the best leaders-start out as decidedly bad ones. And sooner or later they reach a moment of reckoning that leadership expert Bill Treasurer calls the leadership kick in the ass. When it happens, it feels like it’s all over. But Treasurer says that with the right attitude, that kick can be a new beginning. Based on his work with thousands of leaders, this book reveals how to turn those ego-bruising events into the kind of transformative experiences that mark the paths of great leaders. As Steve Jobs famously said, Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me. This book is a survival guide, coach, and morale booster to help you use that kick to move forward instead of fall down. If you succeed, the next place you get kicked might be upstairs.
