Integrating evidence-based principles from the fields of positive psychology with those in leadership and organizational excellence, Do Good to Lead Well is a book designed to help leaders develop real-world solutions to their greatest challenges.

Dowden structures his book around his Six Pillars of Positive Leadership: self-awareness, civility, humility, focusing on the positive, meaning and purpose, and empathy. Not only does this book detail the value inherent in each of these pillars; it provides strategies on how executives can effectively demonstrate the behaviors in their leadership, and the types of return on investment they can expect once implemented.

Dowden's book has received endorsements from top-rated TED speakers and best-selling authors such as Daniel Pink who called it "ideal reading for people who want to make a positive impact in their organizations."

"The message of Do Good to Lead Well is that success comes not when we sacrifice our integrity and values to achieve financial gain, but when we stay true to our own internal compass and morals," said Dowden. "When we do good, we achieve more, and oftentimes, far more than we ever thought possible."

Do Good to Lead Well is now available for purchase on Amazon.com.
