Many leadership books present models for thinking and speaking, but very few address the role of the body in leading effectively. Yet, a great deal of the effect we have on others is carried by our physical presence. Our body postures hold the key to lowering emotional reactivity while increasing our power, resilience, and flexibility. Leadership Embodiment delivers a practical "user's guide" for effective embodied leadership, enabling practitioners to project a powerful, open, and expansive leadership presence, create an inclusive atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork, receive feedback and listen from a place of open curiosity, and stand their ground and speak the truth in the face of pressure. Leadership Embodiment techniques are based on principles from the non-aggressive martial art of Aikido, mindfulness practices, and posture awareness. They are designed to mitigate the impact of the stress and intensity inherent in leadership and daily life. All leaders can use these simple practices to learn to act with power, skill, and compassion. In part one of the book, simple postural practices are offered that broaden our perspective, enhance interconnection, and build confidence. In part two, cutting-edge research in neuroscience and evolutionary biology is used to provide a biological explanation for the efficacy of the Leadership Embodiment techniques.
