Managing Leadership Anxiety Yours and Theirs Steve Cuss Books Reviews
- I bought both the paperback and the audio version of this book. In dealing with my own leadership anxiety over the years, experiencing leadership anxiety in other leaders and dealing with in anxiety of those in general, I've been craving a book like this. Steve addresses the issues clearly, he provides really good examples and doesn't let you off the hook of the tension. He digs into the root of the problem and then details actual, good-news practices that can help. I appreciate the humor, insight and actual relief that this book offers. PS - The audio version is outstanding and because it is done by the author, you get a very good sense of the personality behind the content. I also recommend that version.
- I purchased this book because I was intrigued with Steve Cuss writing a book. I am an older person and I just expected to be mildly entertained, not changed. My leadership days were behind me. I think the book may be misnamed in that it’s a book about living better and getting guilt, real or imagined, off your shoulders no matter your age. I have been stretched to try new ideas and it has been painful at times, but well worth the effort. Every person should read Steve’s book and the world would be a better place to live.
- In Managing Leadership Anxiety, Steve Cuss does an excellent job of addressing all sides of the challenges of leadership anxiety. A favorite chapter - "Idols, Vows and the Stories We Tell Ourselves" - provides keen insights into some of the roots of leader anxiety and ways to conquer. Every chapter concludes with great questions that help you and your team process the content and put the ideas into action. In today's high-stress culture, Steve's book should be a staple for every leader.
- I found Managing Leadership Anxiety, Yours and Theirs, by Steve Cuss, easily accessible. I was able to keep the concepts together while navigating Denver traffic. I have only recently started listening to books on CD to add some variety to my drive time in the car.
It was a great pleasure to listen to this book during my drive time. The book offers several tools and biblical resources for teaching and learning about managing leadership anxiety. Further, the author presents the material in such a way that I could follow and take away a great deal without taking many notes and while navigating Denver traffic. Also, I find the biblical references particularly refreshing and helpful.
Personally, I feel that this book is a rich study course that I would prefer to review and practice over time to get the full value of the material. Some of the techniques and exercises presented may take several days to complete. Although the book is quite accessible, it also offers a deep drawer of opportunity for a more thorough, in-depth study.
I recommend this book to team leaders, managers, and those experiencing leadership anxiety on any level. I think this would be a great training resource as well.
Thanks so much Steve for this great work! - As a business leader in a secular setting, being congruent with my faith in the workplace can be like walking a tight rope. One false move and there are big penalties to pay. Steve Cuss breaks down leadership, and the anxiety that follows, into both practical and biblically grounded wisdom. After just three chapters into the book, I found myself putting some of the advice into practice and it resulted in a positive outcome! Nice work by a first time author! Dig into it and stick with it.
- As a faith based healthcare executive, this book has great, practical methods for managing leadership anxiety in a spiritual, high stress environment. Steve breaks down the different challenges into manageable pieces to truly understand and make manageable, any leadership environment no matter the industry. This is a great resource for managers.
- I never write reviews. I'm that bad person who reads them and uses them, but rarely contributes them. So let that be my first statement of value on this book.
Managing Leadership Anxiety is like taking Friedman's Failure of Nerve, but making it practice-based and theologically integrated from a Christian framework. The writing is clear. The stories are relevant and relatable. The practices/tools are usable instantly in a variety of relational systems (work, family, friend groups, etc). And there are reflection questions at the end of each chapter - you know, those things you skip because you are too busy? Well these questions are like sitting with a good executive coach in terms of their clarity, spiritual formation, and tactical value. NOT to be skipped at all.
This is a book to internalize personally - for a while - and then it can become incredibly usable with teams you lead. Within the buzz around "organizational culture" in the past decade, this book offers a concrete way to create a culture of clear, authentic, collaborative relational systems in the workplace. A must read if you lead - yourself or others - I'm a Christian leader and consultant on Christian leadership. I've read many books on leadership and they often give advice on behaviors and procedures. Which is a good reason we see abuse of leadership in the Church. This book is a gem since it invites leaders into the real, hard work of leading which begins in ourselves. Leadership is dangerous when we don't know ourselves. This book is a great resource to shape leaders who are allowing God to transform them.
