STEP OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE AND BECOME A NEW KIND OF LEADER

"Unnatural Leadership captures the dilemmas and complexities of leading in a high-performing organization. These two executive coaches draw on their broad experience in working with some of the world's top companies to offer a compelling look at how executives think about leading in the 21st century. The book is packed with true stories from the front lines. Each page conveys what today's leader needs to do in order to achieve extraordinary results."
--Andrea Jung, chairman and CEO, Avon Products

"I've given many presentations on the connection between strong character and strong leadership. It's encouraging to read a book that recognizes this truth. It does take strength of character to break out of the comfortable, expected methods of running a company and to look a subordinate in the eye and unflinchingly say, 'I don't know.' That's what unnatural leadership is all about."
--Stephen R. Covey, author, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

"This book is unnatural. It delves into the challenges, realities, and contradictions of being a leader today. Dotlich and Cairo reveal what they've learned from working with global CEOs and senior leaders, and how leaders at any level can accept their strengths and weaknesses, and improve on them."
--Bill Weldon, vice chairman, board of directors, Johnson & Johnson

"In this bold, thought-provoking book, Dotlich and Cairo challenge leaders, teaching them how to rethink the old sacred cows, redefine their roles, and constantly reinvent their game. A must-read!"
--Robert Kriegel, author of If It Ain't Broke ... BREAK IT! and How to Succeed in Business Without Working So Damn Hard

"This book strongly reinforces my own mantra, that healthy people and healthy relationships are what make healthy companies. Dotlich and Cairo have learned that the leaders who succeed in today's workplace are those who expose their vulnerabilities, admit their flaws, embrace team members who are 'different.' As a psychologist, I applaud this trend for human reasons. As a business adviser, I acknowledge that it's a prescription for corporate success."
--Bob Rosen, CEO of Healthy Companies International and author, Global Literacies and Leading People
