Why uncover your hidden talents? Because knowing how to uncover the talents you didn’t know you have and turning them into new skills will help you move away from competencies of the past that can hinder your career and will help you achieve higher levels of performance.

Drawing from decades of experience in executive leadership development as C-Suite officers and consultants, we describe 16 essential leadership tools in simple, concrete, and behavior-based language that will enable you to distinguish what areas of skill and expertise you can naturally call upon and what areas you can develop over time.

Today, new technologies are upending work in every industry. The practical advice and the tools we share through engaging stories will help leaders at any level develop clarity about the capabilities and the skills they need to prepare their teams and their companies for the future.

“Hidden Talents reminds us to never stop learning and never stop discovering. The authors use stories from the lives of real leaders to show us how we can untap leadership potential. Easy and fun to follow, the book uses practical tools that can be applied to everyday situations.” (Anthony Dinkins, Sr. VP Human Resources, Fiesta Restaurant Group)
