The publication of The Art of Being Human at Work marks the 10-year anniversary of Reboot®, the acclaimed leadership development and CEO coaching firm that believes work doesn't have to destroy us—it can be our avenue to achieving our fullest selves. Curated from articles written by co-founder Allison Schultz, this collection of essays explores the core philosophy of Reboot's unique approach to business and leadership: that a combination of practical skills and radical self-inquiry are both necessary parts of what it takes to grow, build, and sustain a great company. Tackling issues like burnout, the perils of perfectionism, fear of change, building trust, weathering failure, and defining success, The Art of Being Human at Work teaches us that if we are to work and lead well—with authenticity, courage, integrity, and compassion—we must first do the necessary inner work of becoming a better human. It pays to be conscious about not only what we're doing but how we're doing it. Written with empathy, wisdom, and humor, this insightful and illuminating book provides a roadmap for leaders and CEOs to do just that.
