Stankiewicz P: The Uncommon Leader

The Uncommon Leader

A CEO's Guide to Building Uncommon Legacy

What if the best leadership playbook was written not in boardrooms-but in Italian vineyards? 

UNCORKED: Leadership Lessons from the Italian Vineyard explores how leaders preserve what matters, adapt under pressure and lead for what endures. Drawing on two thousand years of Italian viticulture, Jason Harfield uses the vineyard as a disciplined lens for understanding leadership in complex environments. 

Across centuries, Italian winemakers have faced collapse, regulation, reinvention, reputation, succession, climate pressure and the constant challenge of growth without losing identity. Their stories reveal patterns that feel strikingly familiar to modern leaders: systems under pressure, tradition challenged by disruption, culture shaping whether change takes hold, and reputation depending on substance rather than image. 

From the rise and fall of Roman Falernum to the bold innovators of Toscana, from monastic stewardship to the Super Tuscan revolution, UNCORKED offers twelve leadership lessons on judgement, timing, transformation, culture, legacy and long-term value. This is not a wine book. It is a leadership book seen through the lens of Italian viticulture. 

Written for CEOs, board directors, executives, advisors and leaders navigating uncertainty, UNCORKED offers a refined and practical perspective on the work of leadership: making trade-offs under pressure, protecting what matters, adapting with integrity and sustaining performance without losing purpose.

Because the leaders who endure, like the finest wines, are not rushed. They are shaped by their environment and refined over time.

What keeps capable leaders from having the impact they know they are capable of?

Often, the greatest obstacles aren't external. They are the unconscious fears, defensive habits, and reactive patterns that surface when the pressure rises, quietly undermining confidence, judgment, relationships, and influence.

The Enlightened Edge for Leaders: Ignite the Power of You offers a practical framework for recognizing and transforming those patterns so you can lead with greater clarity, confidence, presence, and integrity.

Executive coach and organization consultant Barbara Bouchet introduces two powerful dimensions of leadership: the Limited You, which becomes guarded, reactive, and constricted under pressure, and the Essential You, which is grounded, expansive, relational, and connected to your deepest strengths. By learning to recognize the difference-and make the shift between them-you can stop being driven by old insecurities and become more deliberate about how you use your power.

Through practical exercises, real-world leadership examples, and original models developed through decades of work with executives and professionals, you'll learn how to:Recognize the triggers and reactive patterns that limit your effectiveness
Replace defensive responses with powerful relational alternatives
Work creatively with tension rather than avoiding or escalating it
Receive feedback and recover gracefully from mistakes
Handle difficult relationships and challenging conversations with greater skill
Increase your visibility, influence, and leadership presence
Communicate a compelling vision while staying grounded in integrity





Leadership begins with the ability to lead yourself. The Enlightened Edge for Leaders gives executives, managers, entrepreneurs, professionals, and emerging leaders a roadmap for doing the inner work that makes stronger leadership possible-so that when the heat is on, you can bring out the best in yourself and the best in others.

Staying Nimble, Relevant, and Engaged in a World of Constant Change

Make Change Work

Despite performance improvement initiatives such as Lean, Six Sigma, and Supply-Chain Management, only a handful of companies actually break out of the pack to transform their enterprise. This problem is not unique to today's improvement methodologies; the same issues existed when organizations first adopted TQM, re-engineering, and other popular improvement methodologies. Providing helpful methods and metrics for effecting true change, this book highlights how to avoid common improvement traps that inhibit many organizations from rising above the rest.

Written by two experts who have dedicated their careers to quality improvement, Escape the Improvement Trap: Five Ingredients Missing in Most Improvement Recipes separates itself from other improvement books by looking at why most companies rarely achieve anything more than an average level of improvement maturity. They identify five critical ingredients required for successful improvement:1. A meaningful business value proposition and strategy that drives key improvement actions 2. An engaging environment where people can do their best work 3. A focus on meaningful metrics while avoiding irrelevant details 4. Process improvement efforts that maximize cross-functional process performance and foster deeper process understanding, innovation, and execution of best work practices 5. An executive mindset that focuses on customer value, people development, process performance, and business improvement outcomes, not solely on savingsThe authors consider a variety of situations at Independence Enterprise, a fictional company, based on their own very real experiences. They elaborate on the principles that should come into play, look at what Independence Enterprise is doing right and wrong, and suggest deployment actions to help you apply the principles to your own organization.

Five Ingredients Missing in Most Improvement Recipes

Escape the Improvement Trap

A practical and unflinching guide for senior leaders and executives ready to stop performing at the level of their title and start leading at the full depth of their potential.
Most leadership books tell you to work harder, think bigger, and execute faster. This one tells you the truth. The leaders this book was written for are not struggling because they lack talent. They are not falling short because they lack ambition, work ethic, or intelligence. They are sitting with a quiet, persistent awareness that something foundational is missing, and no amount of strategy, productivity, or professional development has been able to name it, let alone close it. Careers worth admiring have been built. Results worth celebrating have been delivered. And all of it has been accomplished while carrying a growing internal weight that nobody around them seems to notice, and that they have never quite found the words to describe. This book finds those words. The BreakForth Principle is a direct, practical, and deeply honest examination of the gap between outer leadership performance and inner leadership infrastructure. Drawing on more than two decades of building and leading a multi-million dollar enterprise, Nichelle L. Early introduces the BreakForth C.I.R.C.L.E., a six-dimension framework of internal leadership infrastructure that determines not just how far a leader will go, but how much they can carry when they get there: <ul> <li>Conviction: the internal authority that holds when pressure rises</li> <li>Identity: the anchor that keeps leadership steady when circumstances shift</li> <li>Resilience: the capacity to recover without losing clarity or character</li> <li>Clarity: the discipline that turns noise into direction</li> <li>Legacy: the long view that lifts leadership beyond the next deadline</li> <li>Execution: the ability to turn vision into consistent, aligned action</li> </ul> Beyond the framework, The BreakForth Principle includes practical tools leaders can use immediately: <ul> <li>The BreakForth Self-Assessment, a personal leadership diagnostic built around the C.I.R.C.L.E. framework</li> <li>Chapter-by-chapter audit tools designed for immediate application</li> <li>A Reading Group and Leadership Team Guide for executive cohorts and organizational development programs</li> <li>The BreakForth Principles, a quick reference of all ten leadership codes from the book</li> </ul> This is not a book about habits, hacks, or hustle. It is an internal infrastructure conversation, the kind most leadership development programs have never taught, delivered with the directness of a CEO who has lived every word of it. Nichelle L. Early is the Founder and President of BreakForth Solutions, Inc., a multi-million dollar IT and professional services firm with three placements on the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies. Essential reading for senior leaders and C-suite executives ready to lead at the full depth of their potential. Readers who connected w

The BreakForth Principle

66 Days to Strategic Thinking
By Pamela J. Green
In today's fast-moving organizations, leaders are often rewarded for speed, decisiveness, and execution. Yet many of the most important leadership challenges cannot be solved through quick answers or operational efficiency. They require something deeper: the ability to pause, discern patterns, clarify the real problem, and make disciplined strategic choices.

66 Days to Strategic Thinking is a practical leadership guide designed to help professionals build the habit of strategic thinking amid everyday leadership responsibilities.

Grounded in leadership research and habit-formation science, this book provides a structured 66-day journey that strengthens a leader's ability to step back from constant activity and engage in more thoughtful, strategic decision-making. Through guided reflection, leadership insights, and practical prompts, readers learn how to develop the thinking discipline required to navigate complex challenges, competing priorities, and organizational uncertainty.

Rather than focusing only on tactics or leadership theory, 66 Days to Strategic Thinking helps readers cultivate a new leadership practice-one that integrates reflection, insight, and disciplined action.

Throughout the book, readers will:Strengthen their ability to pause and think before reacting to challenges
Improve their capacity to discern patterns, relationships, and root causes
Develop greater clarity in decision-making and leadership priorities
Build the habit of aligning daily actions with long-term strategic outcomes
Learn practical ways to apply strategic thinking to real workplace situations



The 66-day format is intentionally designed to support the development of a new cognitive habit. Research on habit formation suggests that sustained repetition over time helps individuals internalize new behaviors. By engaging with short daily reflections and prompts, leaders gradually strengthen their ability to approach challenges with greater perspective and strategic awareness.

This book is ideal for:Executives and senior leaders
Emerging leaders preparing for greater responsibility
Managers navigating complex organizational environments
Professionals seeking to strengthen their strategic mindset



Whether used independently, as part of a leadership development program, or alongside executive coaching, 66 Days to Strategic Thinking provides a powerful framework for leaders who want to move beyond reactive decision-making and cultivate the discipline of strategic thought.

Because leadership effectiveness is not determined solely by what leaders do, it is shaped by how they think.

Pause. Think. Grow. Strategically
