Partnering

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

How to become a great leader through strong relationships, drawing from the wisdom of legendary partnerships including Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, Ben and Jerry, and Desmond and Leah Tutu.

The hidden superpower of great leaders? Deep connections.

Our individualistic society has created a cult of self-sufficiency. The resultβ€”fear, division, and dominationβ€”has crushed our ability to relate meaningfully to each other in the workplace and diminished our ability to innovate and collaborate.

Jean Oelwang, president of Virgin Unite, has interviewed over 60 business and life partnerships, including Desmond and Leah Tutu, and Ben and Jerry, revealing how to nurture relationships with depth and purpose. These kinds of deep connections have a profound ripple effect on everything we do, supporting us to achieve more, withstand anything, and amplify impact. Enduring partnerships are the foundation of a meaningful life as well as the backbone of any successful organisation. In this book, she unpicks the values that connect great partners, the daily rituals they use to stay in sync, and the habits that allow them to disagree respectfully and productively.

Packed with wisdom to nourish the relationships that give us strength and meaning, Partnering is a call-to-action for individuals resisting individualism to lead with purpose and impact.
