Alan Downs
The Fearless Executive
Finding the Courage to Trust Your Talents and Be the Leader You Are Meant to Be
AMACOM, 2000
Was ist drin?
You have nothing to fear but fear itself (and the bad career moves it can cause you to make).
Recommendation
To help you become a better leader as an executive, Alan Downs teaches you how to get through your fears and trust your own talents. He focuses on how to gain the confidence to be yourself. After that, your goal should be to bring passion to whatever you do. While many of these ideas will be familiar to readers of self-help literature, Downs does a good job of adding a unique spin with his examples of classic and present-day stories that illustrate long-held fears. He organizes his material in an effective, easy-to-read way and suggests that overcoming fears is only a step on the road to self-confidence. This leaves the reader with plenty to chew on, marking this book as a better than average self-help guide and earning it a recommendation in this category from getAbstract.
