New Book, From Tension to Transformation, Helps Leaders Create Positive Change
CHARLESTON, S.C., Jan. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Executive coach Janet M. Harvey provides business leaders with insights on how they can leverage workplace tensions to create positive change in her new book From Tension to Transformation: A Leader's Guide to Generative Change.
"By embracing the idea that tension is always present, you can learn to recognize and work with it as a resource for finding solutions," Harvey writes. "The aim isn't to eliminate the pressure of the tension. It's about acknowledging it and then asking, With that pressure, what's asking to be changed? This is how you will begin to invite change."
From Tension to Transformation, published by Advantage Books, discusses such topics as common leader dilemmas, the appearance and reappearance of mental blinders and emotional barriers, and the impact of leadership mindset on the workplace.
Throughout the pages, Harvey shares real-life examples from her experiences working with clients, making all of her lessons more than just theoretical.
She also encourages reader participation with numerous exercises on such topics as identifying your bliss, writing an intention statement, and identifying your judgment as a leader.
From Tension to Transformation is also designed to make it easy for readers to skip right to the content that intrigues or excites them the most. Is your curiosity aroused more by chapter 7, "Authentic Self," than the six chapters that precede it? Then Harvey invites you to go straight there.
"This isn't a book that you have to read from cover to cover," Harvey writes. "Instead, I encourage you to identify the topics you want to engage with according to your gut instinct—according to what sparks emotion in you, be it judgment, fear, curiosity, wonder. I want you to create your own grand adventure with this book."
