“I’ve studied and taught the power of servant leadership for decades. At the core of this powerful principle are TJ Gilroy’s insights into helping leaders become their most authentic selves. An ‘Authenticity Advantage’ yields greater self-awareness, a trustworthy vision, and a willingness to serve others. This book pulls all of the pieces together so you can be the leader your family, team, ministry, or organization needs.”

Authenticity Advantage is a remarkable personal development book – and (admittedly) one of few that I have ever read. That, in itself, makes it amazing that I could not put this book down. I read it cover-to-cover on a beautiful, spring Saturday morning in North Carolina, took four pages of notes and continue to mull its salient points in my brain. Have I learned who I really am? Have I discovered my true GIFT? And have I leveraged the Authenticity Advantage that this awareness conveys to live a purposeful (personal and professional) life? I’ve learned that I have a lot to learn about myself. Authenticity Advantage has awoken me to the need – and the opportunity – to do so.

This book could not arrive at a more welcoming time. The past few years have generated awareness in people on multiple levels. We realize more than ever that people are not who we thought they were, and many of us were not being our true selves. To reframe our view to the fact the advantage we have is our authenticity is a game changer. Recognizing that we are more than capable, to eliminate what gets in the way, is empowering. The two obstacles outlined are mental models that we can change! This book will bring us to a place of reflection and lead us to the insights necessary to reclaim our God-given design, purpose and potential.
