Become a Torch Bearer
LANCE SECRETAN, PHD, calls his book, The Spark, the Flame, and the Torch: Inspire Self. Inspire Others. Inspire the World., a masterwork, because in it he integrates 35 years of experience and theory to show us how to fulfill our destiny and create inspiring organizations. In the words of Michael B. McCallister, President and CEO of Humana, “We live in extraordinary times when breakthrough ideas and innovation are absolutely essential. Humana embraced the ideas in (this book), and they helped us define our future. We have been inspired by Dr. Secretan's groundbreaking work and every leader in America can be, too.”
This book is typical of Secretan: broad, imaginative, sweeping and radical—and breathtakingly inspiring. You see, he firmly
believes that our world leadership is broken—whether politics, business, education, health care, law or religion. They are all broken because they are not driven by a dream—an inspiration. Leaders are rewarding the metrics of performance while overlooking measures of the heart; they are looking for material progress rather than spiritual and human fulfillment.
