No matter what your background is or what failures you've experienced, you can achieve greatness. That is the main thrust of this book. The author, Dr John Ng, is Chief Passionary Officer of Meta Consulting, and draws on years of extensive interviews with thought leaders across the region and his astute observations, personal experiences, careful analysis and synthesis of research, to present a concise guide to the power of self-leadership.
Having coached and supported many individuals to become the best that they can be, John now shares his knowledge and experience with the simple aim of helping readers unlock their own potential and turn their dreams into reality.
Filled with real-world examples of people who have succeeded against all odds, heroes and super stars who allowed themselves to be derailed, and leaders who are epitomes of greatness, this book is a vital resource for readers who wish to take the initial steps on the road to success.
As John writes, "This book will change your life." Readers will be taught to discover their own greatness through their changed perspectives, realigned values, and personal commitment, with specific action steps along the way to guide them towards achieving their goals.
