Ignite Your Leadership: Invite Abundance, Increase Your Income, and Impact Our World - Paperback

by Soribel Martinez (Author), Mary Ann Pack (Author), Elizabeth B. Hill (Author)

Top-down leadership is out, and collaborative leadership is in.

The business world is changing faster than ever. From internal cultural shifts, to still-emerging gender equity in the workplace, to what seems like nonstop coverage of "the great resignation", companies and those that lead them are hard-pressed to keep up.

No matter the forces at work, the key to successful entrepreneurship and business building is in your leadership and your company culture. There is no tolerance for old-school thinking and authoritarian leadership amongst today's employees, and customers and business partners proactively seek out companies whose values they align with.

As a soul-centered leader, this is your time to shine. This is your time to step up and create a company and a culture you can be proud of, and that people will flock to.

Ignite Your Leadership is the real-world map for accomplishing this. Filled with inspiring examples from strong female leaders, and peppered with thought-provoking questions and insights that you can apply to your life and business today, the future starts with you, and it starts today.

Through four guiding pillars, you will explore the concepts of:

• Leading with joy - know that everything you do has a ripple effect.

Leading with Your Own Light
