“Leadership Shock” is a phenomenon often experienced by leaders promoted to a new position. The ground shifts underneath their feet. Suddenly, their calendars are full, and their to-do list is overflowing—sending them into a state of shock. The leadership principles and behaviors that brought past success suddenly stop working, leaving even the most seasoned leaders feeling overwhelmed and ineffective.

Amazon bestseller, Leadership Shock outlines these warning signs and provides a proven methodology to overcome it. Pete introduces the authentic leadership model to provide a framework for leaders to examine their purpose, role expectations, vision, and approach in order to reset priorities and redefine their leadership style. This book provides the self-awareness and tools leaders need to recover from shock, lead with authenticity, and navigate future challenges.
