Awakening the Leader Within: A Story of Transformation guides readers through what Kevin Cashman calls the Six Seeds of Growth. Running parallel to the concepts and models we use in LifesBigQuestion.com, Cashman leads the reader on a path of self-discovery and personal betterment. He engagingly uses one compelling interactive story to draw the reader in by portraying the life of an executive who is confronted with the disconnect between what he says he stands for and how he behaves in defining moments of his life. Authenticy, ethics, and leadership issues are front and centre. Through the use of questions to the reader and personal reflection suggestions, the reader is challenged to take a closer look at the link/gap between personal values and behaviour.
