After reading the book, I have become much more aware of how selfish leadership can slip into employees and into the workplace culture. Selfish Leadership can end up causing significant harm if it is allowed to be accepted. Many people will likely recognize themselves in these situations and should consider whether they always speak up in time.

When I - as a leader - read the book, I am constantly reminded of the underlying responsibility leaders have for our employees - our behavior affects the whole person, not just their work life. The episodes described in the book are relevant and easily relatable to similar events throughout my career. I highly recommend the book because it inspires and motivates leaders to continue developing their own and the organization's leadership. A compelling narrative is combined with new theoretical examples and concrete tools.
Claus Jeppesen, People Director, Legoland


This book can be read by everyone in an organization - to everyone's advantage. It provides a good insight into the personal development journey that the main character, Marie, goes through. I especially liked the focus on the energy barometer and the concrete tools that Marie is given to work with - they can be used both professionally and privately.
