You and We: A Relational Rethinking of Work, Life, and Leadership

National Bestseller

Rethink work, life, and leadership from a relational perspective, and open up never-before-seen opportunities in your companies and communities to heal the rifts threatening societies around the world.

True leadership is rooted in the ability to deeply connect with others. Understanding the dynamics of human relationships is essential in order to thrive--and even just survive--in today's world of work.

Jim Ferrell brings readers another story in the style of his previous bestselling books, Leadership and Self-Deception and The Anatomy of Peace--this time illustrating how lasting success, more than ever before, depends on maximizing our ability to develop strong personal relationships.

You and We is a culmination of all Ferrell has learned over his years of researching, training, and mentoring leaders to transform organization ecosystems. Readers will learn to:

• Think relationally rather than individualistically
• Identify and measure their connectivity levels with people inside and outside of work
• Map and score the relational field of their organizations
• Assess and measure the connectedness of their organizations across the four dimensions of behavior, attitude, structure, and community
• Break through surface-level interaction and foster deep connection
• Eliminate silos and overcome division in their communities

For executives seeking to bring out the best in their organizations and communities, You and We is an essential guide to mastering the art of connection that will empower you to unite, lead, and drive meaningful, lasting change.
