Description

Unwrap the 12 Gifts to lead and live a life of purpose, connection and contribution.

In this fascinating book, leadership and communication expert, Renée Giarrusso teaches us how to view challenging situations — and successes too — as ‘gifts’; each is valuable for the lessons it teaches us. With the right mindset, we can learn to embrace, apply and share the lessons in our personal and professional lives.

Most of us experience challenges, crises, sadness and triumphs and success at some point over the years. Life throws us curveballs. Some are made of glass and hard to catch, some bounce off us and others seem to fall straight into our hands. The author calls these ‘gifts’. How we catch (or drop) these gifts depends on our mindset, perspective, beliefs, experiences, values and so many other things. In this thought-provoking book, Renée teaches us how to adopt a gift mindset to learn from these life experiences and appreciate them as gifts.

The first part of this book explains the benefits of adopting a gift mindset and barriers you might face; the second introduces us to the 12 Gifts, which are:

Optimism
Change
Curiosity
Courage
Gratitude
Resilience

Growth
Empathy
Connection
Forgiveness
Contribution
Re-energising

Each chapter is dedicated to unwrapping each gift. There are stories and research to illustrate how the gift can be useful, and tools and practical advice on how you can reframe what can seem to be a challenge into an opportunity. At the end of each chapter, there is a GIFT process to help you share the gift with others and a bomboniera – five key takeaway to ensure you embed and share the learnings for yourself, your team and loved ones.

This book is for you…

if you want to embrace challenges and successes and unwrap and share the gifts within
if you want to create a team and workplace culture of openness, connection and collaboration
if you are caught up in the “doing” of life and need to reflect on the “gifts that have got you to where you are now

if you are ready to deepen your self-awareness and acceptance of life’s lessons and share these to contribute to others

In this thought-provoking book, Renée teaches us how to adopt the Gift Mindset to learn from these experiences and appreciate them as gifts. Many workplace cultures are transactional and performance focused, adopting a Gift Mindset culture promotes openness, connection and collaboration.

The stories, interviews, insights and practical tools can be easily applied to take your life, leadership and organisation to the next level.
