This book is for anyone who wants to achieve better personal and organizational effectiveness and fruitful business relationships.

It is designed to give both the theoretical knowledge and the tools for action to change your organization’s power dynamics. To operate in a global environment that is increasingly relational than transactional, it is vital to cultivate globally competitive leaders to deal with ongoing change and challenges. The Power of Belonging addresses these challenges faced by leaders today, both when influencing and achieving organizational goals.

This is also a book for individuals too, because we cannot define ourselves by single dimensions—we are a synthesis of our backgrounds, experiences and philosophies. Thus, the most challenging lesson to learn is that belonging will remain a puzzle until we find that it has a unique dwelling place—that we must first profoundly belong to ourselves. So are you ready to be a change agent? Great then this book is for you!
