Deliberate Calm: How to Learn and Lead in a Volatile World

by Jacqueline Brassey

This book is written for people who want to enhance their capacity to face challenging situations with an open mind, to adapt as individuals, and to have a positive impact on our increasingly volatile world so they can lead in a sustainable way. Practicing Deliberate Calm can help anyone navigate challenges with courage, creativity, purpose, authenticity, and adaptability, precisely at a time when it is most difficult to do so. Based on our decades of work supporting executives facing everyday stressors, their biggest, most complex challenges, and full-blown crisis situations, we have developed a unique approach to observing our external and internal worlds and to opening our minds and learning despite the chaos around us. We have found that this creates an extraordinary multiplier effect for both our inner growth and our ability to lead in the midst of volatility and complexity.
