Leading from Being: The 7 Paths to Leadership by Dr Marion Gibbon & Margaret Kennedy
A note from John Rinaldo, The Positive Pen
What drew me to this book is its invitation to begin leadership with who we are. The idea of learning from trees and the natural world feels like a thoughtful starting point for considering how we affect the people around us.
Dr Marion Gibbon and Margaret Kennedy describe seven interconnected paths toward leadership as an embodied, authentic way of living. Nature and the symbolism of trees provide a framework for personal and professional reflection, including sustainability and interconnectedness.
What I appreciate is the attention to responsibility beyond individual achievement. I’m pleased to share this forthcoming book with readers who want to consider how their values, their choices, and their care for the world can guide the way they lead.
