- catalog abstract ""Leaders in all fields suffer from the paradox of success: with heartbreaking frequency they feel that the pains of their business victories outweigh the rewards. Their accomplishments often evoke the envy and resentment of others. Their power and authority often lead to stagnation and isolation; their family lives and spiritual lives are held hostage to self-imposed grueling schedules. Their one-sided competitive personalities, which carry even into their recreational activities, sour their days, which should be rich in the joys of accomplishment and growth. And they can't let go, or step back, because their self-worth has become tied to maintaining their hard-won positions and public images." "But it doesn't have to be that way. Managers, leaders, and CEOs in companies large and small have learned from consultant John O'Neil how to put themselves back on track toward sustained success and deep personal satisfaction. O'Neil has had a long career in business and educational counseling, and has taught thousands of leaders how to sustain personal development through self-observation, engaging in deep learning, and taking time out for regenerative retreats." "When leaders become deep learners, O'Neil says, they can overcome the paradox of success. They can be stewards of an ever-changing corporate culture. They can be patrons of human growth. O'Neil promises that long-distance leaders can bring their personal self-renewal into their organizations, reinvigorating them with enthusiasm, purpose, and delight." "In a lively and inviting style, and with many illustrative anecdotes and personal stories, O'Neil has produced a book that will reinspire and reenergize leaders in the business and professional community."--Jacket.".
