About the book

What drives the world's most effective leaders? The desire to reach their fullest potential.

Actualized Leadership is the first research-based guide to applying Maslow's theory of self-actualization to leadership development. Drawing on the foundational work of Maslow, Jung, McClelland and Frankl, Dr. William Sparks identifies nine traits that define actualized leaders and offers practical strategies to cultivate them. Readers will explore how high-performing leaders think, feel and behave differently and how these patterns contribute to both personal fulfillment and organizational success.

Rich in insight and grounded in science, this book is essential reading for leaders ready to deepen their impact by unlocking their inner potential.
