Gordon Peters, a Chairman and CEO of The Institute for Management Studies, has completed his new book "Beyond Zero Sum Leadership": a gripping guidebook to constructive leadership and modern day organizational skills.

"Gordon Peters shares his insights on leadership from a unique vantage point in executive education. The Institute for Management Studies that he conceived, founded, and heads is an exemplary model of leadership done right. This book distills his decades of experience to help you shape your own opportunities to create value," Professor Iris Firstenberg, UCLA Anderson School.

Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Gordon Peters's enlightening work is the perfect read for anyone wanting to improve their leadership skills.

Peters expands by saying, "Why would you read yet another book on leadership? While writing this book I asked my long-time friend, the late Dr. George Steiner to critique it. After reading the first half of the book he said 'This is really a fresh book'. So just maybe there is something in this book that makes it unlike any other leadership book you might have read before. I hope this book will encourage people to examine their assumptions (beliefs) about leadership and about people in general."

Fair warning... this book is based on the hypothesis that people want to do well, make a contribution, and be a productive part of the organization. Doing something meaningful is more fun (and fulfilling) than clogging up the works, but it takes true leadership to pave the way. This book examines some of the roadblocks we (intentionally or otherwise) put in their way, it looks at the generational effect on decision making, and the weakness of reductive thinking... the "if I fix this one thing all will be well" fallacy.

"Great leadership is a never-ending journey of discovery, experience and insight. Gordon Peters has brought us amazing insights from his fascinating personal journey and rich professional experience. As a life-long learner with an astute sense of history and a keen eye for wisdom, his story is as instructive as it is inspirational. Beyond Zero Sum Leadership is more than a practical 'what and how' leadership book; it is a reflective 'why' leadership book," said Chip R. Bell, author of Sprinkles: Creating Awesome Experiences Through Innovative Service.

Readers who wish to experience this inspirational work can purchase "Beyond Zero Sum Leadership" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.
