Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Path of Rocks and Thorns: Leadership Lessons from a Prison Cell is the leadership book that should change the conversation about how great leaders emerge. Douglas Smith's deeply personal story-of childhood trauma, addiction, mental illness, incarceration, and ultimately, recovery-follows the structure of Dante's Inferno, using it as a metaphor for descending into hell in order to ascend toward purpose. His journey is not for the faint of heart, and this is far from an easy read. Yet the raw vulnerability and hard-won insight Smith brings to his teachings deliver a powerful message: Anyone who has fallen can rise.For those who feel stuck in their careers, paralyzed by anxiety or burdened by the weight of past failures, this book offers a gripping, unvarnished look at how real leadership is forged through accountability, humility, and inner transformation. It challenges the hollow formulas of mainstream leadership books and speaks directly to those seeking something deeper-those in recovery, those rebuilding after loss, and those who know that the path to becoming a great leader often begins in the dark. The Path of Rocks and Thorns is a roadmap for rising-not despite your story, but because of it.
