  Build a Foundation for Continual GrowthIn today's turbulent world you need to continually develop new skills to remain agile and adaptive—otherwise, your strengths will become crutches. But contrary to what many people believe, the best way to develop new skills isn't working on your weaknesses—it's identifying and elevating the underdeveloped abilities that lie between your weaknesses and your strengths. Books like StrengthsFinder 2.0 have helped leaders build on what they're best at—but they stop there. If you only go that far you're missing a huge opportunity for professional growth. Leading Silicon Valley consultants Thuy and Milo Sindell argue that relying exclusively on your top abilities can actually hold you back—it's critical that you expand your repertoire of skills. The most effective way to do that is find your hidden strengths—midlevel skills that can quickly be elevated into learned strengths with attention and focus. This book shows you how.Too many people waste their time working on their weaknesses, say the Sindells. Although focusing on shoring up weaknesses on the surface makes sense, they've found that it takes too much time and effort—the ROI just isn't there. The neglected skills in the middle, neither strengths nor weaknesses, are where the most potent development opportunities lie. They're close enough to being strengths that putting your energy there can offer a fast and powerful payoff. Us the Sindells' free online Hidden Strengths Assessment, along with the exercises and case studies in the book, you'll be able to identify your most promising hidden strengths and create a plan to turn them into major assets. In today's work environment, not growing and stretching yourself translates into lack of innovation, stagnation, and obsolescence. You can't keep leaning on the things you're naturally good at or your strengths will become training wheels. But with the Sindells' help, you'll continually develop new skills that will keep you riding at the front of the pack.

  The Science of Protection -...

  Protection is the New Fair Advantage for Any Leader, CEO & Investor 
  We're not talking about outside-in based protection, through insurance, legal contracts, body guards, security surveillance systems or cyberware. Although very useful, these are reactive and therefore limited. 
  If a leader creates negativity or makes wrong decisions it always comes back in some shape or form. We're talking about proactive universal inside-out based protection, where the right thought at the right time is your saving grace and new inspiration. 
  Unfortunately, through the pressure and busyness of leadership and life we can disconnect from the universal force of protection. (chapter 1 explains what this is). 
  Ever thought the relentless pursuit of achievement may in some way be diminishing you, your team and your achievements? 
  Maybe even corrupting your health, shortening your tenure as a leader, diminishing the quality of your life or even losing your life early? Over the last two decades of accelerated change, top CEO’s and executives aged 30-60, from top companies such as Deutsch Bank, Goldman Sachs, Samsung, Nintendo, Apple, JP Morgan, Fonterra, ESPN, Fox News, GE, Papa John’s, SurveyMonkey, Theranos and Tata Motors, have stepped down or exited their roles due to stress induced performance and health issues, conflict, unethical or inappropriate behavior, and unfortunately unexpected early death and suicide. 
  When the high of achievement wears off, the noise fades, and the silence takes over, what foundation are you standing on? What state do you exist in? 
  If it’s not a state of fulfillment, which is the real goal beyond achievement, then you have to look at how you’re achieving.
