Arrive and Thrive

About the book

How do you thrive as a formidable leader while combatting systemic barriers that add to the complexity of the challenges you face? The leadership book Arrive and Thrive from Deloitte’s Janet Foutty and Simmons University’s Susan MacKenty Brady and Dr. Lynn Perry Wooten, is an impactful guide for women in leadership positions.

Featuring personal stories from executives at today’s most successful organizations and a forward from Indra Nooyi, Arrive and Thrive peels back the curtain on how to overcome obstacles through intentional practices to help you flourish.

The paradigm for women for far too long has been about surviving if you’re lucky enough to arrive at the top. The 7 Impactful Practices for Arriving & Thriving^™ enable you to thrive and, in so doing, help others flourish as well. These actionable practices include:

1. Investing in Your Best Self: Lead from the best part of yourself―and ensure you tend to your mind, body, and spirit for continual renewal.
2. Embracing Authenticity: With intention and ease, bring your whole self to work.
3. Cultivating Courage: Commit to action, alongside your fear of doing so.
4. Fostering Resilience: Keep up with the pace and intensity while overcoming setbacks and emerging stronger than before.
