About this book
Thriving Under Pressure
As a top leader today, you're constantly seeking ways to navigate high-stakes crises and create alignment across complex organizational structures. But what if the missing key to achieving extraordinary business results is something most leaders overlook—humanity? By embracing human connection as a strategic advantage, you can not only stand out in a competitive world but redefine what success looks like for you and your organization.
Edward Mady, a seasoned leader in luxury hospitality, reveals how you can drive the bottom line, create alignment, and build unshakeable teams ready to tackle any crisis through humanistic leadership. Utilizing practical insights grounded in decades of real-world experience, Mady coaches leaders to embrace pressure as a privilege and create effective solutions across the five critical pillars of organizational success: leadership, customers, strategy, culture, and team. You'll learn how to identify and solve key problems that are disrupting your culture and holding you back from achieving exceptional results.
Honing the Human Edge is the must-read executive playbook for turning mistakes into learning opportunities, crises into catalysts for growth, and individuals into empowered collaborators—all while maintaining unwavering purpose and human connection.
