The Mind of the Leader is a unique book on leadership, written through the prism of a seasoned professor of psychiatry and himself a leader in his field. For decades, T. Byram Karasu has treated, advised, and coached highly successful executives and captains of various industries. Some books on leadership focus on strategies, management styles, information systems, and other technical skills. This book starts where these how-to manuals end and offers a different paradigm for leadership. With case vignettes, formal and informal encounters, and old-world uncommon wisdom, Dr. Karasu demonstrates sources of formidable successes and causes of potential catastrophic failures in leaders.

T. Byram Karasu, MD., is the Distinguished Professor Emeritus at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Silverman Professor and University Chairman Emeritus in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Albert Einstein/Montefiore Medical Center; Editor-in-Chief Emeritus of the American Journal of Psychotherapy, and the co-founder of the Annual Tarrytown Leadership Conference. Dr. Karasu is a widely renowned psychiatrist, educator, master coach and psychotherapist, and best-selling author whose work has been translated into many languages. He has published more than twenty books, including novels and poetry, and several volumes on psychological, philosophical, and psychotherapy-related topics. He received the Harvard Bicentennial Lectureship at Massachusetts General Hospital and was the recipient of many awards, including the A.H. Stanton Award at McLean Hospital; the Harry Stack Sullivan and Sigmund Freud Awards; the American Psychiatric Association’s Presidential Commendation Award; and the Distinguished Alumni Award from the Department of Psychiatry of Yale University’s School of Medicine.

The Mind of the Leader is an original and significant contribution to the preconditions and problems of organizational leadership. Karasu’s subtle, tactful, yet courageously direct interventions with leaders are illustrated with multiple examples throughout the book, revealing not only his sophisticated psychoanalytic understanding, but also his outstanding common sense, life experience, and wisdom.
