Quick summary of LEAP! . . .

In 9 highly instructional chapters and 8 inspirational profiles, veteran change expert Dudley Lynch explores the 21st century mindset needed for making the leap to the next level.

A visionary, energizing work, LEAP! is the sequel to his international best-seller, Strategy of the Dolphin.

More details about LEAP!. . .

Prize what's right. Dump what's dumb. Find what works. Then, make it happen by reordering your reality at a new level of simplicity, effectiveness and satisfaction.

In a nutshell, those are precisely the kind of spot-on observations and outcomes made possible by the thinking qualities illuminated in this trailblazing book.

Veteran change and strategy expert Dudley Lynch says these skills can become available to any of us when we activate the unique thinking characteristics of what he calls "the dolphin mind." In contrast to the increasingly antiquated and overwhelmed carp, shark and note-quite-flying-fish varieties of mind, the dolphin mind isn't swamped by the rapid-change demands of the 21st Century. Instead, it is constantly searching for ways to make the leap to the next right, smart, good thing or move.

In this galvanizing work with universal appeal, Mr. Lynch demonstrates one more time why he is considered by many to be the most insightful, eloquent and inspiring guide to the work of the late Clare W. Graves, psychology's most original “interdisciplinary” explorer of how the mind grows. And why he is uniquely equipped to offer dependable counsel on how to respond to the unprecedented demands of our change-fraught new century.

“Next level” powers and abilities that he seeks for every reader include:

--The super-glues of self-healing, raised to a whole new effectiveness.
--The confidence to confront. And then, where possible, to include.
--An automatic aversion to incompetence. (And a game plan for dealing with it.)
--Wonderment, then exploration, then activation. Because it's your nature.
--The judgment of the merciful & the passion of the justice seeker. And the wisdom to know the difference.
--Awareness, so you can always find your way forward.
--Resilience, so you can always find your way back.

And, of course, the ability to make the leap to what's next, what's possible, what makes sense and what works any time and every time the world confronts you with the need to do something different.

In 9 highly instructional chapters and 8 inspirational profiles, LEAP! gets you ready for the launch, come hell or high water, feeding frenzies, the jarring arrival of the unknown, tough times or other life-changing events. You can count on the tangible payoffs you are looking for, whether you need to search for a new job or career, discover new meaning for your life or just get to work updating and reinvigorating your favorite part of the planet by becoming the solution when there doesn't appear to be one anywhere in view.

LEAP! is a sequel to the author's international best-selling work, Strategy of the Dolphin.
