Leading on Empty - Rhett Smith, Leadership Network (LeadNet.org)
Wayne helps leaders assess what burnout and failure looks like, but he also provides a roadmap for how they can get back on track. His seven hard lessons seem obvious, but unfortunately they don't become obvious except in hindsight for many of us.
