Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

What is the single most important factor that distinguishes the great leaders from the rest? Which personal quality is most likely to inspire confidence in customers, respect among colleagues, and loyalty from employees? Which aspect of your leadership style should you focus on to put your performance, your career, and your life on the fast track to success?

The answer to all of these questions is a single word: Energy. But, you need to know how to control energy to make it work for, not against, you.

In Energy Leadership, renowned coach Bruce D Schneider shows you why the way you use your energy will determine whether or not your organization thrives. He helps you become more aware of your personal power, both in the workplace and in the world at large. And, he shows you how to become a powerful leader, one who motivates others to reach their true potential.

Following the Energy Leadership program, you'll learn how to recognize the seven distinct levels of energy that are the key to understanding why everyone thinks and acts the way they do. You'll learn how to distinguish truly effective leaders from those who deplete the energy of the people around them and specific techniques you can use to shift the energy levels of the people around you to inspire peak performance.

You'll also become familiar with the Big Four Energy Blocks, learn how to recognize them in yourself and others, and discover proven tools and strategies for overcoming these and other obstacles to success.

If you always try to inspire others but sometimes feel like something's missing, something is. Energy Leadership puts you in touch with the missing link between your ambitions and your ability to achieve them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the Wait, November 5, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Energy Leadership: Transforming Your Workplace and Your Life from the Core (Hardcover)
It's been nearly a decade since Bruce wrote his first book, Relax, You're Already Perfect. I loved that book and I love Energy Leadership even more. It was definitely worth the wait. I've already seen the power of this coaching process in my personal life, and was hoping that the book did justice to it, and it does. It is a wonderful story, fun to read, and offers a ton of valuable information.

The thing I like most about it, though, is that I can see how people from varying levels of awareness will each get a message just for them. There are many obvious "gems" and countless others that are woven throughout the text that may not be easily recognized at first. I think that's brilliant, as the book meets people exactly where they are, and then, when they read it again, they'll see more messages, and the cycle will continue.

I recommend this book to everyone. Don't be fooled by the title, as it's not just for the workplace. Energy Leadership offers a way of life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Completely Useful Case Study, November 5, 2007
By 
GW MBA (Arlington, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Energy Leadership: Transforming Your Workplace and Your Life from the Core (Hardcover)
Throughout my education, including my MBA, teachers used case studies to demonstrate how visionaries and leaders transformed their small organizations into successful businesses, or failed to recognize their weaknesses that led to the downfall of their corporation. Energy Leadership not only provides this standard perspective, but provides insight into how any entrepreneur can motivate themselves to become the best possible leader.

I use this knowledge every day while running my own company, and in all of my personal relationships.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tranformational!, November 7, 2007
This review is from: Energy Leadership: Transforming Your Workplace and Your Life from the Core (Hardcover)
Energy Leadership goes way beyond lessons to help you be a better leader in the workplace. For me, it captured my imagination and opened my mind to exploring a new way of being and showing up in life - both at work and everywhere. The seven levels of energy that exist within us and how they show up and affect our lives masterfully unfolds through a fascinating story. The book provoked a number of Ahah moments and a greater understanding of my own energy, where it was stuck and what can happen when I choose to get unstuck. It is chock full of lessons for living a purposeful and passionate life. I highly recommend it!
