WHY REFLECTIVE LEADERSHIP? In the early years of our consulting work, a potential client asked why he should fly us across the country instead of hiring a local consultant. Curious what others would say, we put the question to a few long-time clients. The response of one CEO hinted at a vision of leadership transformation as unique as it is challenging: 'You got us to stop looking at each other and start looking at ourselves. You pushed each of us to hang a mirror and really take a look at what we saw.' It is a basic human tendency to focus on the shortcomings and failures of others. But Hanging the Mirror: The Discipline of Reflective Leadership demonstrates that the results leaders seek are ultimately found only through ongoing reflection, contemplation and self-examination. Avoiding quick fixes and superficial 'solutions,' Hanging the Mirror: •Challenges you to take an honest look at your beliefs and the way they shape and impact the human systems you head. •Lays out a practice of ongoing reflection that any willing leader can adopt. •Offers a path toward self-knowledge and self-mastery, making you an ever more effective leader of people. Drawing on behavioral research as well as several decades of management consulting experience, Hanging the Mirror invites leaders to begin a process of personal and professional transformation as profound as it is challenging.
