Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take 📱 Kindle
The Leadership Gap
Lolly Daskal · 2017
76/100
👍 Worth It
Daskal's seven archetypes — Rebel, Explorer, Hero, and so on — make self-diagnosis genuinely fun and memorable instead of another dry competency checklist, and she grounds it in real psychological theory from Frankl, Campbell, and Jung. It's a national bestseller for good reason, though the Jungian framework won't be everyone's cup of tea if you want something more strictly evidence-based.
