Book Synopsis

"Parents Who Lead" by Stewart Friedman is a transformative guide for busy parents who seek to thrive at work and home.

This book goes beyond traditional work-life balance discussions, exploring how parents can redesign their work and personal lives to better support each other. Friedman outlines four core principles that form the foundation of successful leadership: being real, being whole, being innovative, and being connected.

Readers will discover practical exercises and tools to apply these principles in their daily lives. From setting boundaries and managing time, to building strong networks and nurturing relationships, every aspect of a parent's life is addressed.

"Parents Who Lead" equips readers with the necessary skills to effectively communicate with their partners, children, and employers, creating a harmonious environment where they can thrive as leaders both at work and at home.

By embracing the principles of total leadership, parents will find fulfillment and enjoy the rewards of being fully present in every aspect of their lives. Friedman's compassionate and enlightening approach makes this book a must-read for any parent seeking to lead with purpose and create a meaningful and balanced life.
