About the Book

Great leadership is a prerequisite for success. It’s about communicating the vision and mission of your organization effectively and creating cultures of innovation, inspiration, and a strong sense of purpose to allow your employees to flourish.

Chris’ multitude of experiences in multiple industries—insurance, higher education, hospice, non-profit, and consultation—have helped him fine-tune a leadership style that gets results, empowers people, and goes above and beyond the bottom line to bring record ROIs to every organization.

In Walking the Leadership Tightrope: How to Balance Career and Family through the Chaos of Crisis, Chris recounts his experiences from his early days of childhood at his local Catholic parish to founding his own executive coaching and consulting company, and all the leadership roles he undertook in between. The book offers a unique perspective of a leader’s efforts to transform organizations and draw strength from his faith during challenging, turbulent times: personal tragedies, his wife’s battle with cancer, and a global pandemic.

Walking the Leadership Tightrope is a testament to what leaders can achieve when they learn how to balance career and family, especially when they’re in the middle of a tsunami of crisis and chaos. Chris’ insightful advice weaved in with proof of its impact he saw in his own experiences makes this book not only valuable for C-suite executives and industry leaders, but for anyone who wants to grow into being a transformative leader—all while staying upright and unshakeable on the tightrope of life, career, and family.
