A proven thought leader among Fortune 100 executives and tip-ranked military officials, Richard Strozzi-Heckler blends his martial arts mastery with time-tested business strategies to present a new, body-based leadership practice.
The bestselling author writes, 'Bookstores are filled with stories of great leaders and what they did in certian situations, but nothing about how leadership is learned.' This new work answers that need with key principles developed in training groups among top brass at AT&T, Hewlett-Packard, Microsoft, the Navy, the Army, and the Marines.
The Leadership Dojo is based on three key questions: What does a leader do? What are the character values most essential to exemplary leadership? How do you teach these values? Drawing on the wisdom of ages from Plato to the Bhagavad Gita, from Thucydides to the Abidharma, the author asserts that understanding and answering these questions are the key to superior leadership skills.
The first book of its kind to base business and management strength on integral body awareness, The Leadersip Dojo presents key principles such as shugyo, or self-cultivation. The result? A moral and spiritual vision that affords the efficacy, individual responsibility, and social commitment it takes to lead with authority.
Richard Strozzi-Heckler has worked with tens of thousands of people over the last thirty years including corporate executives, Olympic and professional athletes, managers, political leaders, and inner-city gangs. He is the author of the nationally acclaimed In Search of the Warrior Spirit, as well as The Anatomy of Change and Holding the Center. A pioneer in applying somatics to such fields as finance, technology, and manufacturing, he is the founder of the Strozzi Institute in Petaluma, California.

These exercises focused my attention on what was getting in the way of my success at work.

Through the strategies in The Leadership Dojo, I found the presence I needed in places that I had never thought to look. The exercises will surprise you in all the best and most meaningful ways.-Tim Bullock, Group Vice President, Europe, Africa, and Eastern Hemisphere, BP Oil International Limited
