How do some of the world’s top leaders unlock the potential of others, create trust, and lead through change?

Jacob started out with one basic question; is vulnerability the same for leaders as it is for everyone else? It turns out it’s not. On August 20, 1991 Hollis Harris, the CEO of struggling Continental Airlines told his 42,000 employees to pray for the future of the company. The next day he was fired. What Hollis did was vulnerable, but there was no leadership.

While vulnerability cripples some leaders, others are able to tap into it and use it as a superpower. Vulnerability alone makes leaders seem incompetent whereas competence alone makes it hard for leaders to connect with their people. The key is they need both, vulnerability and high levels of competence – what Jacob calls The Vulnerable Leader Equation.

Based on over 100 CEO interviews and a survey of nearly 14,000 employees, renowned leadership thought leader and futurist Jacob Morgan shares candid stories and never before seen research which shows how leaders can tap into vulnerability to transform themselves, their teams, and their organizations.

This book will show you why it’s so crucial to lead with vulnerability and more importantly, how to do it well.

Leading With Vulnerability is not just a book to share with your leaders and your co- workers, it’s a profound invitation to a paradigm-shifting adventure. Nothing like this has written before and after reading it, you’ll never look at leadership the same way again.

“Jacob takes a wonderfully thorough look at one of the most important – and lacking qualities in leaders. And he does so with a raw and honest approach that makes his point all the more powerful(!)”

Patrick Lencioni
