Publisher's summary
Great leaders are built from the inside out, not the outside in.
"Be a leader." Most of us hear this phrase. It’s a message no longer reserved for the aspiring C-suite executive or CEO. It’s for everyone, from the recent college graduate to the mid-career professional to the top of the corporate ladder. It’s for every industry and every sector, too. But what does it mean to “be a leader”? How do we become one? What does it take?
In today’s world, it takes more than being a great decision-maker, strategic thinker, and risk manager. It takes mastering the inner game to become a “savage leader”. In this book, Darren Reinke will show you how by guiding you through 13 key principles that will help you develop and master the inner qualities and traits you need to become a leader.
In The Savage Leader, you will learn how to:
- use your values to anchor and guide your decisions;
- adapt best practices for authenticity;
- forge unbreakable bonds with your tribe;
- embrace patience;
- seek out discomfort to drive growth;
- get unstuck and take action;
- crush your doubts;
- and much more.
Drawn from Reinke’s experiences working in corporate America and as an executive coach, developing player-coaches for top organizations around the world, The Savage Leader is also packed with dozens of interviews with remarkable leaders, including Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, professional athletes, Navy SEALs, and pioneers in the fields of sports, entertainment, and technology.
Whether you’re a status quo-challenging entrepreneur, community activist, high-potential manager, trailblazing teacher, mid-level manager, or startup founder, The Savage Leader will give you the practical and actionable tips you need, while inspiring you to reach your full leadership potential.
Inside each of us is a “savage leader” - we just need to learn how to unlock and unleash them.

We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

What type of person comes to mind when you think of an introvert, and what type of person comes to mind when you think of a leader? The two words are rarely linked together. Society often labels people with introverted personalities as at least one of the following: quiet, shy, reserved, or timid. While at the same time leaders are described as dominant, passionate, outgoing, and ambitious.

Most of us live with the stubborn idea that we'll always have tomorrow to do our most important and valuable work. We fill our days with frantic activity, bouncing from task to task, scrambling to make deadlines and chase the next promotion. But by the end of each day we're often left asking ourselves "did the work I do today really matter?" We feel the ticking of the clock, but we're stuck in first gear, unsure of the path forward and without a road map to guide us.

In today’s work environment, the lines between our professional and personal lives are blurred more than ever before. Whatever is happening to us outside of our workplace - whether stressful, painful, or joyful - follows us into work as well. We may think we have to keep these realities under wraps and act as if we “have it all together”. But as Mike Robbins explains, we can work better, lead better, and be more engaged and fulfilled if - instead of trying to hide who we are- we show up fully and authentically.

Story
In today’s work environment, the lines between our professional and personal lives are blurred more than ever before. Whatever is happening to us outside of our workplace - whether stressful, painful, or joyful - follows us into work as well. We may think we have to keep these realities under wraps and act as if we “have it all together”. But as Mike Robbins explains, we can work better, lead better, and be more engaged and fulfilled if - instead of trying to hide who we are- we show up fully and authentically.

What if you can successfully coach anyone in 15, five, or even 60 seconds using one question? Sales Leadership makes delivering consistent, high-impact coaching easy. For busy, caring managers, this removes the pressure and misconception that, "Coaching is difficult, doesn't work, and I don't have time to coach." Since most managers don't know how to coach, they become part of the non-stop, problem-solving legion of frustrated Chief Problem Solvers who habitually do other's work, create dependency, and nourish the seed of mediocrity.
