Simply Complex: Leading out of Authenticity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736468203)

Creating personas and code-switching is far beyond anything you've ever had to do. From the workplace to the classroom, at church, or social events, you perfectly fit-in, feeling comfortable in your skin, or do you? Simply Complex: Leading out of Authenticity uses a twelve-pillar model to enable self-improvement, leadership development, and/or team building. A leader has the power to influence another person's actions or decisions, but it is up to the individual to choose how they will show up. As a leader, one of your most significant responsibilities is to create a physically and mentally safe, healthy, and inclusive environment for people to thrive. After spending almost a quarter-century in a work environment where I felt my drive, creativity, voice, and authenticity gradually dissipate, I was motivated to write a book based on real-life experiences to help guide people to lead out of authenticity. When you embrace your true identity, no one can shame you, silence you, or define you. Unmask your persona and show the world the best of you.
