What if you could catalyze your own transformation? Authors Rick and Amy Simmons first uncovered liminal space--the idea that periods of uncertainty have the power to reshape our lives--while studying abroad for their graduate program in organizational behavior.
Shortly afterward, they began experimenting with another idea: rather than waiting for an inflection point to occur, they could launch it themselves--curating their own liminal experiences and accelerating their growth. Helping others navigate liminality and create it themselves became the heart of their work.
Unleashed: Harnessing the Power of Liminal Space is a two-part guide, illuminating the potential of liminality for individuals, teams, and organizations, and breaking down its elements so readers can launch their own liminal experiences.
With stories from leaders helming organizations of all sizes, from a regional health facility to a corporation with products in 90 percent of American homes, Unleashed provides the practical and theoretical insights necessary for transformation.

A portion of the proceeds from this book will be used to support the telos Leadership Foundation.
