Overview

SustAIning Leadership: The Rhythm of Human Excellence By James Nicholas Kinney -Leadership Futurist, and Chief People Officer In a world of constant change, disruption, and digital acceleration, leadership is evolving faster than ever. SustAIning Leadership: The Rhythm of Human Excellence is a practical and inspiring guide for leaders who want to build strong, empathetic, and sustainable cultures in the age of artificial intelligence. Author James Nicholas Kinney combines two decades of executive experience with insights from neuroscience and psychology to reveal how emotional intelligence, awareness, and rhythm can transform leadership from reactive to regenerative. His message is simple but powerful: technology can't save us from ourselves, but awareness can. This book provides a framework for conscious leadership that balances high performance with mental well-being. It challenges traditional management models built on fear, exhaustion, and competition-and replaces them with strategies rooted in empathy, trust, and resilience. You'll learn how to build emotionally intelligent systems that scale, integrate AI tools without losing human connection, and create rhythm in leadership that sustains energy instead of draining it. Kinney explains how to move from fear-based leadership to trust-based culture design and how mental health has become the new foundation for innovation. As a Workday AI Ambassador, Kinney explores how responsible AI adoption enhances-not replaces-human potential. He shows that technology and empathy can coexist, and that true leadership requires both data and heart. His writing blends science and storytelling, offering leaders and teams practical ways to stay grounded, creative, and emotionally fluent in a world defined by uncertainty. This book is for anyone leading through transformation-executives, entrepreneurs, managers, educators, and anyone passionate about personal growth and sustainable success. Whether you lead a small team or a global enterprise, you'll find tools to strengthen awareness, build trust, and inspire authentic performance in yourself and others. If you believe the next revolution in business will be emotional rather than mechanical, SustAIning Leadership will show you how to lead that change. It's a book for leaders who want to elevate not just productivity, but humanity.
