The Solitary CEO: How To Overcome The Isolation That’s Holding You Back

"Since you've picked this book up, I'm going to assume that you feel "lonely at the top." You're probably a little-or maybe a lot- weary of the daily leadership grind. You want to become a better leader, but you're also fatigued, even exasperated, and you have a hard time finding the help you need to lead with more balance and engagement. How do I know this? Because it is lonely at the top. But the difference, which I discovered in a jail cell, is that it doesn't have to always be true. Jail is the ultimate equalizer, and in that way, it is the ultimate belittler. But jail, and particularly solitary confinement, is where this book begins. It's also how I learned lifelong lessons that made me a better person, and consequently, a more engaged, effective, and balanced leader."

Patrick Sallee's inspirational story and supremely practical lessons will help you regain the ground you've lost and become the kind of leader people want to follow. You'll discover how to:

• Deconstruct your silo

• Become the third person in your life

• Own your mistakes

• Collaborate with openness

• Delegate with confidence

• Focus on well-being
