About
Countless books are designed to help leaders to become better leaders. But most resources neglect the underlying emotional struggles of both emerging and established leaders, who are often isolated and suffering in silence. Leadership professor Nicholas Rowe and counselor Sheila Wise Rowe offer their expertise in helping leaders process painful and traumatic experiences. Trauma contributes to how we lead others in either empowering or dysfunctional ways. Understanding how these experiences formed us is the beginning of the path to healing.
Woven throughout each chapter are five themes-invitation, attachment, remembrance, healing, and reconnection. Healing Leadership Trauma lays out the emotional challenges of leadership and offers encouragement, prayer, and therapeutic tools to help leaders face their pain and begin to heal.

"Nicholas Rowe and Sheila Wise Rowe know that leaders struggle hard and honestly to flourish in our roles. Even so, too often leaders take a step forward only to have high stress or trauma knock us back a step or two. We need help beyond coaching or mentoring. Thankfully, Healing Leadership Trauma centers healing of leadership trauma as the path for effective and ethical leadership. It is a deep source of wisdom."
