What motivates great leaders to achieve their best? The need for "self-actualization"--to reach your highest potential--is the foundation for personal and organizational effectiveness. Based on the seminal works of Carl Jung, Abraham Maslow, David McClelland, and Viktor Frankl, Dr. William Sparks' groundbreaking new book shows how Actualized Leaders think, feel, and manage differently while providing practical strategies for developing a more actualized approach to leadership. The first research-based book to operationalize Abraham Maslow's highly influential theory on human motivation for leaders, the book cites nine thinking, feeling, and behavioral traits common to self-actualized leaders.
