Winning Begins at Home: A Strategy to Win beyond Work―A Leadership Parable

Randy Gravitt's Winning Begins at Home is a leadership parable that explores what it takes to win where it matters most—at home.

Develop a plan for success. And WIN where it matters most!

When you think of success, what comes to mind? Career, public achievements, diplomas, degrees? We work hard to find a job, gain promotions, and develop skills to become a peak performer. We’re continually striving to win at work. But does winning at work mean we have to lose at home? In all our “winning,” are we neglecting what matters most?

Through advances in technology, the rise of social media, and the growing shift to working from home, our personal and professional lives are becoming increasingly intertwined. Struggles at home cause struggles at work and vice versa. Unfortunately, too many leaders achieve career success, only to find they have critically damaged their relationships with the people closest to them.

Winning Begins at Home will help you change all that. The book features a man who may be on a path similar to yours—having a thriving business while a chasm grows between his family and himself. When our businessman meets a mentor who guides him through an action plan for getting his family back on track, he finds hope. And you will too! Part story, part assessment and workbook, this book will lead you through exercises, writing prompts, and action steps that will help you create a blueprint for the family you want. You’ve developed a growth plan to win at work. It’s time to develop one for the place that matters most. It’s time to start winning at home!
