Many executives overlook the single-most critical aspect of leadership. Have you?

The most important driver of overall success is your own self-leadership. Without it, your career may stall. Why? Because how you lead yourself directly impacts your ability to lead others, and that, in turn, can prevent you from reaching your full career potential.

Self-leadership. It begins and ends with you.

In Leading YOU, The power of self-leadership to build your executive brand and drive career success, senior executive coach Brenda Bence reveals the 15 most damaging self-leadership behaviors she regularly sees in her practice. She then provides you with dozens of tips and techniques you can immediately apply to correct or improve these behaviors.
