A Holistic Perspective on Leader Development

Grounded by Bob Rosen is about the inner aspects of being a leader. Rosen identifies six dimensions of personal development that constitute healthy leadership—the physical, emotional, intellectual, social, vocational, and spiritual. This is not a groundbreaking book and the explanations of the dimensions do not go into great depth. Rosen’s contribution is in emphasizing the importance of the inner aspect of leading and synthesizing its many dimensions. Rosen brings together findings from multiple disciplines and relates them to leadership development. Many practical ideas are provided and illustrated with examples of accomplished leaders. Grounded is a solid contribution to the literature of leadership development.
