Message:
THE PAUSE PRINCIPLE: Step
Back to Lead Forward offers an
antidote to our addiction to speed and
transaction, replacing it with a
conscious, intentional process of
stepping back to reflect and deliberate,
and then lead forward with greater
clarity and impact. Rather than merely
doing more, we must learn to pause
and to do things differently in order to
grow, achieve and innovate. All of
these practices lead to purposeful
change, and contribution, an essential
part of a leaders everyday life.
In our fast-paced, achieve-more-now
culture, the loss of pause potential is
epidemic, writes Cashman. If
leaders today do not step back, to stop
momentum, to gain perspective, to
transcend the immediacies of life, and
to accelerate their leadership, we will
continue to crash economically,
personally and collectively.
Cashmans work centers around one
simple truth: that fast thinking is the
domain of management transaction,
while slow thinking is the leadership
domain of strategic, innovative
transformation. At the core of this
transformation is the ability to pause.
W You and your organization will
learn to move from management speed
and transaction to leadership
significance and transformation.
