Synopsis

Take a walk on the wild side with fascinating and compelling leadership lessons from the animal kingdom.

Nature is the perfect teacher for the challenging and very personal concept of leadership. And no one knows this better than former zoo and aquarium senior leader turned leadership consultant Julie C. Henry.
Wisdom from the Wild shows you--whether you're a new or experienced leader--how to learn from and be inspired by the wildlife and wild places all around you. This fun, new approach to leadership presents nine "Unbreakable Laws" from the animal kingdom. These true, fundamental guidelines with concrete examples from wildlife can steer your work and decisions as a leader.
Creatures that might seem unusual or even unexpected in a book about leadership--such as naked mole rats, spiders, and even sea cucumbers--will teach you how to
*deal with change,
*more effectively lead teams,
*build your resilience muscle as a leader.
Reinforcing these essential lessons from the wild, Julie C. Henry presents a myriad of business case studies and immediately actionable tools to strengthen your leadership skills. So join this extraordinary dive into the natural world as you've never seen it before, as you uncover your leadership prowess among the animals.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Julie C. Henry is an outdoor explorer and animal lover at heart who is continually learning and sharing leadership lessons inspired by wildlife and wild places.

A former zoo and aquarium senior leader, Julie is president of Finish Line Leadership, a training and consulting firm, and has worked with over fifty-five organizations across corporate, nonprofit, government, association, and community sectors. She holds Bachelor of Science degrees in both zoology and education (Miami University of Ohio), a Master of Arts in communication (University of South Florida), a Postgraduate Diploma in outdoor education (University of Otago), an Executive Program Certificate in Sustainable Business Leadership (Green Mountain College), and has completed graduate coursework in winter ecology in Grand Teton National Park (Teton Science School). She was selected as a Fellow of the Toyota TogetherGreen program of the National Audubon Society, chosen for the Disney's Animal Kingdom/World Wildlife Fund Biodiversity Leadership Program, and a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar to New Zealand.

Julie has presented to over one million people across thirty-two states and six countries, in on-site and online settings ranging from auditoriums and ballrooms to boats, beaches, forests, theaters, boardrooms, and even underwater while feeding sharks and moray eels. She has yet to see a wolf in the wild, snorkel with whale sharks, or visit Antarctica, but she continues to dream about those moments!

She lives in Sarasota, Florida, with her two children, whom she lovingly describes as her "zoo animal" and her "wild animal" due each one's natural inclination toward life.
