The Leadership Warrior: Coaches Edition: Lessons from the Samurai - Paperback

Peak performance coach, author, and speaker, Dr. Alison Arnold, gives you a step-by-step practice to develop the leader within you. The Samurai were 12th century noble members of the military class - the Japanese warriors. The word Samurai comes from the Japanese verb saburau, meaning to serve or attend. A Samurai is both a warrior and a servant.

This transformational 28-day practice for coaches melds warrior characteristics (loyalty, respect, ethical behavior, and discipline) with servant characteristics (selflessness, nurturing, empowering) of the amazing Samurai. The integration of these forces leads to ultimate excellence in coaching leadership.
