- Love + Work :- A Wall Street Journal bestseller World-renowned researcher and New York Times bestselling author Marcus Buckingham helps us discover where we’re at our best both at work and in life. You’ve long been told to “Do what you love.” Sounds simple, but the real challenge is how to do this in a world not set up to help you. Most of us actually don’t know the real truth of what we love what engages us and makes us thrive and our workplaces, jobs, schools, even our parents, are focused instead on making us conform. Sadly, no person or system is dedicated to discovering the crucial intersection between what you love to do and how you contribute it to others. In this eye-opening, uplifting book, Buckingham shows you how to break free from this conformity how to decode your own loves, turn them into their most powerful expression, and do the same for those you lead and those you love.

At age nineteen, Shannon huffman polson became the youngest woman ever to climb Denali, the highest mountain in North America. She went on to reach the Summits of MT. Rainier and MT. Kilimanjaro and spent more than a decade travelling the world. Yet it was during her experience serving as one of the Army’s first female attack helicopter pilots, and eventually leading an Apache flight Platoon on deployment to bosnia-herzegovina, that she learned the lessons of leadership that forever changed her life. Where did these insights come from? From her own crucibles of experienced from other women. In writing the grit factor, polson made it her mission to connect with an elite pack of tough, impressive female iconoclasts who shared with her their candid stories of combat and career. This slate of decorated leaders includes Heather penney, one of the first female F-16 pilots, who was put on a suicide mission for 9/11; General Ann dunwoody, the first female four-star General in the army; Amy McGrath, the first female marine to fly the 18 in combat and a 2020 candidate for the US Senate dozens of other unstoppable women who got there first, including polson herself.
