Reviews for The Survival Guide for Gen X Leaders: Building the Bridge from the Great Resignation to the Multigenerational Future We All Want

Amy is a seasoned and strong woman leader who is both effective and empathetic. I was honored to be interviewed for this book alongside other Gen X leaders and to have interviewed Amy on my podcast, The Lead Like a Woman Show. The Survival Guide for Gen X Leaders is a go-to-guide for navigating what Amy refers to as the panini press of life! Roll up your sleeves and prepare to get inspired to make it through this challenging time as a leader at any level. Dr. Amy Morrison is a pacesetter! She is setting an example for those leading through the messy middle of mid-life. Her pragmatic, thoughtful, and impactful advice is also a balm to those of us leading through an incredible period of post-pandemic transition. Her advice and those of other Gen X leaders shines a spotlight on a path forward as we set-up future generations for leadership success. Dr. Morrison is respected nationally for her leadership, especially in the early hours of the COVID-19 pandemic. As her college became known as Campus Zero for the pandemic, she shepherded the institution with grace and decisive actions. In The Survival Guide for Gen X Leaders, she highlights how she and other Gen X leaders have overcome countless leadership obstacles in ways that are not only effective but supportive and empowering of those they lead. The post-COVID-19 world challenges leaders at every turn, and Morrison's survival guide is a must-read for all leaders who need a boost, some creative leadership ideas, and above all reassurance that they are not alone. I have known Dr. Amy Morrison to be a true Gen X leader for over a decade. I am so pleased that she has put her well-tested leadership advice and those of her successful peers into an accessible survival guide for all leaders, especially those of us at mid-life. We have never needed successful leaders more than we do right now during this time of incredible change. We all need examples and ideas for successful leadership, and Amy fills that gap in an accessible and practical way.
