It is a time when leaders cannot be as anxious as those they serve; otherwise, the system is leaderless. Anxiety flows down like water from a leaky pipe. To lead effectively, we must understand the impact of powerful emotional forces on people's behaviour, especially in anxious times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eUproar: Calm Leadership in Anxious Times\u003c\/em\u003e helps leaders understand the powerful impact that emotional processes have on the people they lead. Peter Steinke, bestselling author of \u003cem\u003eCongregational Leadership in Anxious Times\u003c\/em\u003e, draws on decades of work on system conflict and personal experiences to share real stories of challenges leaders have faced and how understanding the power of emotions has dramatically influenced their success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this book, readers will observe important leadership characteristics such as separating oneself from the surrounding anxiety, making decisions based on principle and not instinct, taking responsibility for one’s own emotional being, staying connected to others including those who disagree with you, being a non-anxious presence, focusing on emotional processes rather than the symptoms they produce, knowing people naturally influence one another, and recognising leader and follower as complements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the end of each chapter, there is a Leader’s Notebook, a short section to illustrate, enrich or engage your thinking about leadership. As Steinke suggests, being anxious causes you to lose perspective, and leaders do their best thinking when they are not overly stressed and can think about options, doing their best work when they work on themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo where are you in your leadership journey?
