At the same time, you do good and support sustainable projects. Because what does the Perfect Leader of the future look like in a world in which the understanding of leadership is just changing fundamentally? More agile, more flexible, fewer hierarchies. But what it really comes down to is passion. If you inspire and excite your employees as a boss, you can forget about all the hard-won motivation tools. Another important aspect is diversity in mixed leadership teams. Excellent personnel management and development also has a lot to do with psychology. The boss acts as something between a rule giver, an organizer and an animator, always listening to his or her employees but also guiding them. And this balancing act simply succeeds better when the mixed duo at the top of management covers completely different positions, attitudes and competencies. Only equipped with these skills is the leadership also perfectly positioned for a future in which they must react flexibly to changes and crisis situations at all times. But only in this way can productive, fruitful leadership emerge at all. This book shows what matters. Good luck and have fun reading.

In this instant New York Times bestseller, Angela Duckworth shows anyone striving to succeed that the secret to outstanding achievement is not talent, but a special blend of passion and persistence she calls “grit.” “Inspiration for non-geniuses everywhere” (People). The daughter of a scientist who frequently noted her lack of “genius,” Angela Duckworth is now a celebrated researcher and professor. It was her early eye-opening stints in teaching, business consulting, and neuroscience that led to her hypothesis about what really drives success: not genius, but a unique combination of passion and long-term perseverance. In Grit, she takes us into the field to visit cadets struggling through their first days at West Point, teachers working in some of the toughest schools, and young finalists in the National Spelling Bee. She also mines fascinating insights from history and shows what can be gleaned from modern experiments in peak performance. Finally, she shares what she’s learned from interviewing dozens of high achievers—from JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon to New Yorker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff to Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll. “Duckworth’s ideas about the cultivation of tenacity have clearly changed some lives for the better” (The New York Times Book Review). Among Grit’s most valuable insights: any effort you make ultimately counts twice toward your goal; grit can be learned, regardless of IQ or circumstances; when it comes to child-rearing, neither a warm embrace nor high standards will work by themselves; how to trigger lifelong interest; the magic of the Hard Thing Rule; and so much more. Winningly personal, insightful, and even life-changing, Grit is a book about what goes through your head when you fall down, and how that—not talent or luck—makes all the difference. This is “a fascinating tour of the psychological research on success” (The Wall Street Journal).
