Human-Centered Leadership

Sesil has created a must read for business leaders, HR, managers and frankly anyone that cares deeply about human growth and self-efficacy. It does a beautiful job of reminding us of what’s most important. Sesil is tackling some existential concepts in this book and invites us to go deeper to understand the power of courage, compassion, wonder and pursuit of mastery. This book is a wonderful combination of ideas and propositions that are inspired by life experiences, current business examples and realities, with an ode to ancient wisdom and a nod to science. Don’t miss it. Priya Priyadarshini, GM HR, Microsoft Corporation

Most management and leadership books serve up the same stuff. This new book by Sesil Pir thankfully breaks the mold by focusing on the experience of choosing to become a better leader and leading a better organization. Transformation – individual or organizational – is a deeply personal and fundamentally courageous journey, and Ms Pir understands this better than most. Don’t read this book if you want to hear tired old advice that was already irrelevant before the pandemic. But absolutely pick it up if you are open to significantly rethink how you lead, plan, collaborate, and invest in developing the next generation. Jon Younger, Forbes Contributor and Author, Agile Talent

The critical importance of work for individuals, organizations, and communities demands a human-centered future of work. This book is invaluable for identifying the importance of human-centered leadership and for providing the vision for organizations to embrace this much-needed ethos. John W. Budd, Industrial Relations Land Grant Chair & Professor, University of Minnesota and author of The Thought of Work

Sesil brings a unique, fresh and very personal perspective to what it takes to forge a truly purpose driven and people-centric culture within an organization. She gets to the core of what it means to be human, our most basic needs and attributes, what shapes our behavior and mindset, and ultimately what drives us – what gives us true purpose – understanding the ‘why’. An essential read for anyone who is looking to unleash their own full potential as a leader, and who aspires to enable others to do the same. Giles Platford, Vice President, EUCAN, Takeda Pharmaceuticals

I have watched Sesil’s journey for some years. As a colleague, friend, fellow traveler on meaning centred leadership. This book is as much about organizations finding meaning and purpose as it is about leaders finding their anchor. Sesil was one of the earliest proponents of organizations becoming ‘human centric’ and treating people as whole beings suffused with meaning and purpose with infinite latent potential versus just a finite resource to be maximized. She has been a passionate and diligent advocate of harnessing the power of human centric organizational models and looking at the whole person (mental, emotional, physical, spiritual) as an allegory for an organization which is in balance with itself, its environment, its purpose and its community. This is a timely book which reminds us that organizations must be seen as dynamic, living systems powered and challenged by the same impulses which define the human existence—meaning, purpose, feelings, a deep sense of connection and community. And these embody both the challenges we face as well remain key to overcoming these challenges. Rahul Sharma, Vice President, Global People & Organization Head, Novartis
