New Business Book Summary Urges Leaders to use Secure Base Leadership

IPSWICH, Mass. - Aug. 1, 2013 - PRLog -- Business Book Summary of Care to Dare

EBSCO Publishing has just released a new book summary. In Care to Dare, George Kohlrieser, Susan Goldsworthy, and Duncan Coombe demonstrate how to combine leadership, safety, and stretch to become a Secure Base Leader, regardless of one’s position or profession. The book’s title reflects two sides of Secure Base Leadership: caring and daring. One is not possible without the other. Secure Base Leaders unleash potential by building the trust, delivering the change, and inspiring the focus that underpin high performance. The authors offer actionable advice to help put leaders in the frame of mind to encourage the right actions. They take readers on a journey to discover their own secure bases, past and present, and determine how they can be a secure base for other people in their personal lives and at work.

George Kohlrieser, Susan Goldsworthy, and Duncan Coombe offer readers the following advice:

· A secure base is someone or something that inspires or generates energy. Places, goals, and objects can be secure bases, as can a country, a religion or God, an event, a group, or even a pet.

·  Because the need for a secure base is rooted deep within the brain, the secure base concept applies universally across all cultures and generations.

· People can become great leaders through the influence of their secure bases.

· People demonstrate Secure Base Leadership when they combine comfort and risk, support and stretch, protection and challenge—essentially when they bond with their people and focus them, their teams, or their organizations on targets or goals.

·  When people embrace Secure Base Leadership, their organizations are more likely to deliver sustainably high performances with outstanding results.

· Bonding is at the heart of Secure Base Leadership. Individuals do not have to like other people to bond with them; they just need a common goal.

· Secure Base Leaders manage their own Mind’s Eye to focus on the positive and the benefits, and they influence others to focus their Mind’s Eyes in that direction as well.

·  Managing the Mind’s Eye is essential to managing oneself and is the root of all success.

· People can inspire others to “play to win” through intrinsic motivation.

· Individuals must eliminate dialogue blocks between themselves and others to improve their effectiveness at work and at home.

· When an organization prioritizes both relationships and results, it can be a secure base to employees.

In addition to a 7-10 page summary of the book, each Business Book Summary includes a Key Concepts section that outlines the main points of the book, an About the Author section that informs readers of the author’s background as well as their additional written works, and a Features of the Book Section that explains the special features found within the book.
