Leading Yourself

Find More Joy, Meaning, and Opportunities in the Job You Already Have (Despite Imperfect Bosses, Weird Economies, Lethargic Coworkers, Annoying Systems, and Too Many Deliverables)

About this book

Create the work experience you want in the less-than-perfect job you already have.

In Leading Yourself, celebrated workplace thought leader Elizabeth Lotardo delivers an engaging guide to owning and elevating your work experience. With tips, watchouts, and funny stories, Leading Yourself will give you the encouragement and tactics to up-level your career, even if you aren't in your dream job. You'll learn to manage your self-talk, find meaning in the mundane, optimize your time at work, and build relationships with the people who matter.

Lotardo, a wildly popular LinkedIn Learning Instructor, shares key behaviors and habits that will transform the way you experience your job and unlock opportunities for career growth. You'll discover:

  • Strategies to overcome self-doubt, embrace change, and navigate uncertainty
  • Talk tracks for handling difficult bosses, like micromanagers, know-it-alls, and leaders who constantly change their mind
  • How to avoid the awkwardness of giving and receiving feedback and what to do when the feedback is wrong
  • Tips for preserving your own reputation when other people don't deliver (or if your company majorly messes up)
  • Frameworks for evaluating and making your next career move


Leading Yourself puts the power back in your hands. Even if you work for a fallible boss or imperfect organization, you can change the way you experience your job. An indispensable guide to self-leadership for aspiring and current managers, executives, directors, and other business leaders, Leading Yourself is the roadmap you've been waiting for.
