Do you go through life experiencing a permanent case of the blahs, or struggle with the constant feeling you're destined for more-only you don't know what that "more" is? Or perhaps you feel stuck in a job that is less than fulfilling and doesn't allow you to fully invest in your relationships and your self-care? If so, international coach and speaker Curt Mercadante wrote this book for you.

Lying low, sucking up, procrastinating, and doing a good enough job may keep employees breathing, but it doesn’t make for vital organizations. Leaders have to get their people unstuck and fully engaged, replacing their old, limiting mental patterns with new patterns that foster optimal...
