The Intelligent Leader: Unlocking the 7 Secrets to Leading Others and

Leaving Your Legacy

In today’s business world, we find ourselves in a conundrum: all businesses crave superior leadership,
yet such leadership is in massive short supply. While there have never been so many books, blogs,
speakers, and seminars on leadership, global organizations are finding that the supply of leadership
talent is significantly lagging the supply of raw intellectual horsepower. There is no shortage of intellect
in the world of business; however, when it comes to superior leadership, most global organizations are
realizing how difficult it is to compete simply because they just don’t have enough great leaders in their
ranks. In addition, the challenge of preparing the next generation of leaders to handle the fiercely
competitive global landscape and lightning fast pace of change that defines this era, is proving almost
insurmountable. John Mattone has found a solution to this leadership paradox and developed an
approach that cuts right to the core of what holds leaders back from greatness and future leaders from
achieving their potential. It’s what has made him the world’s top executive coach, the “coach of
coaches”, and what has drawn Fortune 500 CEOs—from the late Steve Jobs to PepsiCo’s Roger Enrico—
to seek his counsel. And fortunately for the business world, Mattone’s secrets are no longer being
shared exclusively in boardrooms and executive suites, but now also in his newest Wall Street Journal
bestseller, The Intelligent Leader and his powerful keynote, based on the book. Key Elements of John’s
