Why This Book Exists
G. Damon Wells is a leadership researcher, Army veteran, and the author of four books on leadership science. His work focuses on a single question most leadership development ignores: why do leaders who succeed in one environment fail in another? His research draws on personality science, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and thirty years of observation across military and corporate contexts. Close the Loop is his fifth book.
Sign up today and the ebook of Right Leader, Wrong Arena is yours immediately — free. It's about why the same leader who excels in one environment can fail catastrophically in another, and what the science actually says about why that happens.
In July you'll get an advance copy of Close the Loop before it publishes anywhere. It's about feedback systems — why some organizations self-correct under pressure while others spiral, and what it takes to build a culture that senses itself accurately. You'll also get behind-the-scenes access to the video series I'm filming this summer.
I'm looking for honest readers, not cheerleaders. Read it, push back on the ideas, and if you find it worthwhile leave a review on Amazon or Goodreads when it goes live.
The first 20 people to sign up get a signed, jacketed hardcover of Right Leader, Wrong Arena mailed to them.
