Summary of Lolly Daskal's The Leadership Gap

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I work with leaders who are smart, nice, and even power hungry all at once. I help them identify what stands between them and their greatness, which is their leadership gap.#2 To help leaders get to where they want to be, I help them understand who they are not just superficially but deeply, which means acknowledging the parts of their personality they feel the need to hide or keep secret. Together, we find the gap that keeps them from becoming who they want to be.#3 Leadership gaps are invisible and insidious. They are the result of lying to yourself about your past, present, and future. They are the result of prioritizing truth above all else.#4 The first step to being great is being real. We are not just what we think, but also what we hide. We all have something we are ashamed of, and these secrets and patterns create our leadership gap.
