Definition of "genius": someone who has exceptionally intellectual or creative power or other natural ability. Doing or creating something truly creative will be the defining feature of success in the 21st century. This requires us to seek out our abilities and the innate resources born to us, raise our performance and fulfil our potential - in other words, to enable our genius. This fascinating book examines the nature of genius in human beings and what it takes to go beyond mediocrity and ordinariness. Written by a leading thinker and consultant in human performance, together with contributions from other experts in the field, the book identifies three specific kinds of genius that are within everyone's reach: unique individual genius (in a specific discipline, craft or skill set); genius in any discipline, craft or skill set; moments of genius (that occur as spontaneous, unplanned events); and collective genius (the coming together of individuals to deliver something extraordinary).

The Sessions centres on Padraig, an operations director at a successful Irish IT firm recently acquired by a large American corporation. It begins dramatically with Padraig, overwhelmed by anger and frustration, throwing his briefcase—containing his irrelevant presentation—into the River Liffey after learning the American parent company plans to move the entire business "Stateside" for "optimization." This leads him into a Dublin pub where he strikes up a profound, chance conversation with an anonymous, insightful stranger. Thus begins the “sessions” in which the stranger becomes Padraig’s coach and mentors him through the challenges and frustrations facing him.The Sessions is an original business book, written in fiction format, in which we learn real-world business success requires political acumen, and which emphasizes lessons about leadership development and the value of an external perspective. Through these coaching sessions, we see Padraig moving from despair to action, as he secures a meeting with the CEO and successfully pitches his alternative plan, winning the business a “stay of execution”.

A practical, modern book for managers and leaders who need to know how to get the best from their teams in a 21st century business world. The world of work and the needs of people in the workplace have changed to the extent that the old models no longer work. Today's manager cannot rely on 'command-and-control' and a culture of compliance to get their job done. What is the answer? Much of what Millennials are asking for - development and growth; transparency and connection; work that has meaning and purpose; empowerment - a change in leadership style, that is fitting to today's business environment; that seeks to align rather than control, to enable rather than constrain, to coach rather than command. Leading business coach Myles Downey applies the concept of coaching to modern- day management, showing managers how to motivate and enable teams and team members to achieve their goals.
