Wave Staff Report
In his transformative new book, “The Kid and the King,” Shasheen Shah opens his field-tested playbook to reveal the approach he has used one-on-one with top executives from companies such as Tesla, LinkedIn, Hewlett Packard, IBM and Ashley HomeStores, as well as many at the helms of startups, to help them realize not only outstanding business results, but also rewarding, balanced personal lives.
“There is an inherent duality within the human psyche: one that seeks to protect and operates from fear (the kid) and the other that knows no bounds (the king or queen),” Shasheen said. “Understanding and allowing this duality to peacefully coexist is the key to living a successful and fulfilling life.”
In “The Kid and the King,” Shasheen takes readers on a step-by-step journey through the emotional mastery process, a system he uses to empower professionals worldwide and provides compelling success stories that show his methods in action.
“Ultimately, fighting battles every day is exhausting and has a lot of undesirable side effects,” Shah said. “What is motivating the individual to get to the destination is a promise that life will all work out and they will feel good when they finally get there.
“I’m here to tell you that without doing the inner work — really doing the inner work — you’ll be chasing that for the rest of your life and never find it ‘out there.’ It’s an inside job and not that complicated. You just have to have the courage to do it.”
Shah is the CEO of Coherent Strategies Consulting and Coaching. For more than 20 years, he has delivered breakthrough results to successful leaders around the world, navigating business outcomes and the personal challenges that go hand in hand with the journey.
High-achieving professionals from numerous Fortune 500 companies are but a few who have benefitted from Shasheen’s paradigm-shifting coaching skills.
Shasheen describes his powerful new book as “a one-part philosophical and three-parts tactical training approach to a very crowded leadership and personal development space, providing the reader with the best field-tested strategies and exercises that have consistently produced results.”
