The traditional wisdom that molded leadership for years is losing its effectiveness in our chaotic, digitally overwhelmed world. In some cases, those principles you’ve always relied on may even be impeding your progress. Truth is, you can’t possibly seize unexpected opportunities or take full advantage of today’s innovations if you’re stuck using old patterns.

In Leadership Unchained, Sara Canaday offers a unique perspective that helps modern leaders break free from the chains of conventional wisdom and blaze new trails toward even greater success.

"Great leaders are not born, they’re made…and they constantly re-make themselves to meet evolving business challenges. Leadership Unchained is the perfect blueprint for becoming the kind of leader you’ve always wanted to be—and that your people deserve.”

–Jeff Haden, Inc. Magazine Contributing Editor and Best-Selling Author of The Motivation Myth
