Regardless of whether you are a leader, lawmaker, entrepreneur, manager, professional, associate, student, parent, family member, teenager or an adult.
What to expect?
This book will take you straight to the source of all your choices and behaviors.

You will gain insight into the three forces that determine each and every one of your choices, behaviors and personal leadership: ego, soul and consciousness (spirit).
The following questions will be answered: What is ego anyway? Should you jettison your ego? What are the benefits of ego, and what are its pitfalls? Or, what is the soul? Is there a reason for our existence? What are the five existential tasks the soul has to tackle? What are the pros and cons of working and living from inspiration? And, what is spirit or consciousness? How can you utilize it more to have smoother relationships in private and at work and to create more peace for yourself and others around you? In the last section of the book you will see how you can make a real contribution towards a better world.
The new book is packed with over 300 pages of inspiration! The retail price is €34.95 per book.

“What an impressive insight has been incorporated into your book. It offers a fascinating journey to the core of personal leadership. The idea that we can contribute every day to a meaningful work style and a more meaningful life resonates deeply. Your approach, which focuses on the forces of ego, soul and consciousness, offers a refreshing view on the dynamics of personal growth and leadership.
The way you invite the reader to explore the relationship between ego and soul is particularly valuable. You not only expose the benefits and pitfalls, but also provide practical exercises that are immediately applicable. This makes the book not only informative, but also immediately useful in everyday life. The concept of spirit or consciousness as a means to improve relationships and strengthen inner peace offers a powerful message. The ability to work and live with inspiration, as you describe, can indeed lead to more sustainable and meaningful results, both personally and professionally.
The luxurious version of your book, with more than 300 pages full of inspiration, will be structurally valuable additions to the library of anyone who requires personal and professional growth. Your work invites reflection and action, thereby contributing to a better world”.

"Made for me! This is what reading the book 'Spirited Personal Leadership' by Martin Thoolen felt like. A book full of recognizable situations, inspiring examples and, above all, a book that has opened my eyes. About my own behavior, choices and motivations and that of others. I felt strengthened, partly because of the confidence that emerges from this book. The confidence that everything will work out as it should, as long as you consciously follow your heart and soul.”

“I was very fascinated! It is written invitingly, not pedantic. The examples and exercises really help you understand it. Nicely designed too. I'm going to use it as a handbook. To occasionally recover or reflect on a difficult situation or simply be inspired.”
Operations teamleader RSG N.O.-Veluwe
“The book is a beautiful work that I regularly go back to".
“Based on a clear design, I am taken into the dimensions of personal inspiring leadership. With inspiring examples, written from the author's rich life experience and with scientific substantiation, it brings inspiration in personal leadership to life. Martin Thoolen puts Spirited Personal Leadership in a broad perspective, but is by no means vague. Precisely by becoming aware of the forces around you, the book helps you to stand more firmly and confidently in a world in which you want to make a difference.”
Dr. Bob from Global Pathology Support
“In this book, concepts such as “Ego, Soul and Consciousness (Spirit)” are finally clearly defined, in contrast to what is done in many other “airy fairy books” in this genre. The concepts are then discussed in more depth, partly on the basis of a number of practical examples. Suggestions are then made on how to deal with this in order to achieve a richer (inner) life and ultimately a better world. An easy-to-read book that provides an in-depth analysis and understanding of the psychological ways of human nature. Highly recommended because of the pragmatic and meaningful nature of this book.”
Experienced author/trainer/coach
“This book was pleasant to read and fitted in well with my own vision. The author's lived experience is palpable in it. That contributes to a 'down-to-earth' feeling when reading it. The difference with my book is that his book is broader and that he explicitly involves spirit.”
