You are working hard. You are sustaining your job. You are doing well in your field. Life seems fine. But there is something that’s holding you back from making it to the top in your field of work. That something could be an annoying habit, a behaviour, or a trait that’s getting you stuck in your career.

All of us want promotions and salary increases. We desire to make it to the top. But most of us don't realize that these things cannot be asked for by putting our hands out.

You can get that promotion, the salary raise, the new project, the visibility, the sponsors, the accolades, and the achievements only when you work on yourself harder than you work on your job. You must become such that success, promotion, and job offers begin to follow you everywhere.

In this book, Payal Nanjiani points out that the reason why many do not make it to the top is not because of a lack of information, abilities or skills. Having private access to some of the world's most successful industry leaders, she tells you that those who truly make it to the top in their careers are doing things differently than others.

An expert coach, who helps leaders globally overcome their unconscious habits and behaviours to attain higher levels of success, she has worked with corporates and leaders around the globe bringing about a huge transformation in the thinking and behaviours of leaders. Her one-on-one coaching comes with a six-figure price tag. But in this book, Payal shares some great advice and strategic solutions to reach the top without a hefty price tag.

The book has hands-on advice on what to do, how to do it, and what transformation to bring about in your thinking and habits. These ideas, powers, and habits have been tested in practice on numerous executives Payal has coached in the past eighteen years and are helpful to people in every part of the organization.

We all face challenges and deal with setbacks. But in the long run, you'll achieve incredible growth and success if you're willing to change your thinking and behaviours.

Are you ready to unlock your leadership powers and live your best life?

Payal due to her close proximity to various great leaders has provided very good thought-provoking ideas and frame framework in finding interaction between inner and external powers. This book provides much-needed compelling ideas on the power of transforming ourselves to achieve our leadership potential and fulfillment in life by taking risks and charting unknown territories in complex ever-changing business environments.

-- Shailendra Jagtap, Managing Director & Country Manager at John Deere India Pvt Ltd

This book is a great resource for anyone who aspires to the top and is willing to give what it takes. This book describes what matters beyond hard work, dedication, and being at the right place at the right time very well.

-- Girisan Kariangal, Managing Director, A. Menarini India Private Limited

This book is a must-read if you want to break out from the self-imposed bonds holding you back. She is the best executive coach you could have drawing on the experience of the best leaders. I agree with her, the starting point is understanding yourself and what’s holding you back. Then think strategically and use your self-confidence to take risks.

-- Frank O’Connell, Author of Jump First Think Fast

Payal Nanjiani is great at bringing out the subtle yet powerful points that move the needle. In this book the weaving of the professional powers, inner leadership powers, and outer leadership powers is beautiful. Combining this with the “I need to take charge as the change needed is inside me…80% of the work is done inside the mind” concept is simply powerful. The other part about leaders being mind readers, and then the one about taking risks, is all invaluable and key to developing strong leadership and driving success.

-- Vishal Sharma, CEO, Godrej Industries Ltd

Success in leadership roles requires the cultivation of many skills. The foremost of them is learning to lead yourself before you lead others. Payal Nanjiani, an expert leadership coach, has diligently deep-dived into the why and how of this. Her latest book inspires everybody on how to arrest self-made excuses for our mediocre behaviours, grow over our mental comforts, unlock our fears, and dismantle harmful habits and beliefs to conquer ourselves, for that is the way to the true north. Success is an internal game for which she has provided apt guidance on harnessing our ultimate potential and triumph in our careers.

- Swami Mukundananda, Global Spiritual Leader and Mind Management Expert

Payal has a rare ability to connect dots across the hundreds of deep conversations that she has with a broad spectrum of leaders, to create fresh insights on self, teams, and organizations.
Dr. Varun Nagaraj, Dean, SPJIMR, India

Payal is fiercely optimistic. She looks for and finds that opportunity in every adversity with a calm, unruffled mind and smiling face. I have noticed her colleagues getting inspired by her innate problem-solving skills without being overbearing.

-- Dr. Arun Arora, Chairman, Vivero Preschools & Childcare

This easy-to-read book takes one on a very interesting path of self-discovery in one's career field. The author with a very gentle nudge guides the understanding of the elements of not only individual leadership but the techniques as well.

-- Indrani Malkani, Ashoka Fellow, Chairman at V Citizens Action Network (VCAN)

Reading through this book I can proudly say this “Wonder Woman” has hit the bull's eye again. As both of us have brainstormed, the challenge most leaders face is their inability to realize not only their inherent potential but their team’s as well to move from good to great. This book will help unravel this mystery, especially as Payal dwells on the concept of “inner leadership” and “outer leadership” and finding the right balance between the two and unleashing one’s full leadership potential! Kudos to her not only elevating her game but helping others elevate their game as well.

-- D. Narain, Partner AgVaya and retired President & CEO of Bayer South Asia and Global Head of Smallholder Farming

This book is not a typical book on leadership - its focus on inner leadership powers makes it a different read. Pages that talk about empowering ourselves using our own inner and outer leadership powers and how to balance them to climb the leadership ladder are not just interesting but also educating. I could relate my growth in the corporate world with many of the comments Payal has made in this book. My philosophy is "You become who you think you are and can be" and this book makes me believe it more.

Many in my leadership team were coached by Payal with one-on-one sessions and I was very impressed with the transformation I saw in my team members. Every leader, upcoming leaders, and wannabe leaders must interact with professional coaches like Payal to understand their inner and outer leadership powers and use them effectively to create a successful environment for self and all.
