Publisher's Summary:
A provocative, personal approach to leadership based on in-depth research with hundreds of executives around the world.
Confronted by disruptive change and economic turbulence, many of today's leaders find themselves ill-equipped to manage the hazards they now face. They must contend with chronic uncertainty, cynical employees, and personal burnout. Most are poorly served by the prevailing paradigm that obsessively focuses on what we do to produce short-term results while sabotaging who we are as healthy human beings. Few have seen alternatives, until now.
Grounded proposes a new approach that's designed for actual humans who must grapple with these forces. This new paradigm speaks to our better selves. Based on the author's "Healthy Leader" model, it focuses on the six personal dimensions that fuel- and refuel - the world's top leaders: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, vocational, and spiritual health.
The book argues that leaders at every level can be more self-aware, develop their untapped potential, and drive significantly better results - for themselves, their teams, and their organizations.

A Must Read book on leadership
At last! Iâm thrilled to find a book that deals with the bigger picture of exceptional leadership!
In our current world of uncertainty, crisis and change, where inspiring and effective leadership is woefully absent and is crucially needed, Bob Rosenâs book, âGroundedâ clearly lays out a map for how successful leadership will work in the 21st Century.
The days where leaders can effectively lead by focusing solely on performance and bottom line are over.
âGroundedâ outlines the inner qualities of effective leadership as well as the new performance skills leaders will need to withstand the currents of change, manage the deluge of daily information, navigate uncertainty and lead others with vision and inspiration.
Filled with decades of research in both science and numerous case studies, âGroundedâ presents the irrefutable fact that exceptional leaders will have to focus more on who they âbe,â relying more and more upon their inner knowing as well as focusing on what they âdo.â
âGroundedâ is a must for any leader interested in leading successfully into the 21st Century. Maria Danly, CPCC, MIM, Founder of New Paradigm for Leadership
Balance finds a voice in leadership!
There are so many important books written about leadership which describe and line out skills, capabilities, competencies and how-to. What strikes me as profound about this book is that it addresses the who of leadership in a different manner. As a psychiatrist, I have always believed that the cultivation of balance in life and attention to the fundamental drivers of who we are give direct access to good overall health. When we look to leaders and find those who follow habits to cultivate overall health, we feel energized and motivated. I know I do. This book describes that fundamental importance and sounds a clarion trumpet calling leaders to attend to these habits in life and develop intention to foster them in self and others.
