Management & Leadership

It’s a brutal paradox—the same founder attributes required to put a startup in motion will invariably blow it up. The difference between success and failure lies in the personal journey that every founder must pursue to avoid their own worst impulses. Steeped in nearly forty years of research in leadership psychology, Founders, Keepers begins with the same personality assessment Rich Hagberg, a psychologist and executive management coach, gives his clients.

What daily worries should we learn to treat as unimportant? How do we become more accepting of ourselves and of those around us?

A leader is not necessarily someone who graces the cover of a national magazine. A leader is not necessarily the head of a corporation or even of a small business - though everyone working underneath that person hopes he or she is. A leader is a connector, a communicator, a coach, a problem-solver, a decision-maker, and a team-builder. And to be all of these, a leader must self-manage well. This book, written by a leader in his own right, is not a devotional, though it has some of that flavor. It is also not another leadership book meant to be listened to only and set aside.
