Summary of Conscious Leadership 

4.6 . 292 reviews

Short summary

As the universal economy develops and organizations are faced with new challenges, there is a need for leaders who do not just preside as bosses. Businesses — and the world at large — need leaders who seek to elevate humanity with their position consciously. Anyone can be a leader — as long as you are in the place to impact lives, however small — but not everybody knows how to be one. American businessman and author John Mackey and his co-authors make a crucial contribution to the conversation about leading with “Conscious Leadership.” This summary shows how you can grow yourself into a leader who makes active and significant contributions to your organization and the world. With practical steps to being an excellent leader, you will learn to fulfill your highest resolution to impact lives. Read on for personal growth and to gain knowledge of the world of business. “When leaders become more conscious, the organizations they lead become more conscious, creating an ever-widening circle of purpose-driven cultures and communities.” ~ John Mackey

first key point

Conscious leadership is about the mindset, energy, and presence a leader brings to everything

Listen the first key point
00:00
00:00
Leadership has always presented difficulties, but today, among our fast-changing global economy, those difficulties are grand. Technology is increasingly losing orderliness, and universal competition is ever constant and present. And while generational shifts in the workplace are complicating organizational norms, changing attitudes about business responsibilities are putting more pressure on leaders.

The perfect CEO today needs Warren Buffett’s wisdom, Winston Churchill’s assertiveness, Steve Jobs’ creativity, Oprah Winfrey’s emotional intelligence, and Nelson Mandela’s patience. No individual perfectly meets these multiple demands. However, they best learn a valuable lesson: leadership is a constant service journey, not a stagnant position of power. What is essential is that there is always room for more growth.

The type of leadership to be practiced today is conscious leadership. It isn’t easy to become a more mindful leader and it’s not enough to follow the rules or adopt the latest leadership trends. Conscious leadership is, first and foremost, an inner journey of character growth and personal change informed by a robust understanding of human nature and human culture. The business society — and the world — has never been in greater need of conscious leaders.
It is not only companies that need conscious leaders, but non-profits, educational institutions, governments, the military, and more.
This summary shares leadership principles and practices that can be applied in any sector. So, read on to learn how businesses are elevated through humanity and how you can elevate humanity through business.
second key point

A leader’s job is to ensure his purpose remains essential and relevant

It is quite easy to have a significant purpose, either for a country or a company. Every person and organization has that leadership prospect to unify people around a higher purpose. It may not require Abraham Lincoln’s heroic prowess, but it is there.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
