The 8 Dimensions of Leadership: An Interview with Jeffrey Sugerman

We were excited to see The 8 Dimensions of Leadership made it to No. 3 on Businessweek's list of New Business Books!

Today's Des Moines Register features an interview with President and CEO of Inscape Publishing, Jeffrey Sugerman, Ph.D. about his new book and the Free Executive Briefing we're hosting tomorrow morning.

"Personality has not always been part of the leadership dialogue," Sugerman says. "Without understanding what makes you tick, you are likely to fall into a same pattern with the same old problems and blind spots as a leader."

Once individuals target their predominant leadership styles, the book "takes each reader on a deeper dive into what makes them tick," Sugerman says. "Then, we take them through a needs assessment."

Read the full interview: Book explores: what makes leaders tick?
