Jerry Colonna is the CEO and cofounder of the executive coaching firm Reboot.io. A highly sought-after coach and speaker, he is also the author of Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up. For more than twenty years, he has used his experiences as a CEO, investor, journalist, college professor, and, lastly, coach to help people lead with humanity, resilience, and equanimity. He is astounded by the fact that he lives on a farm outside of Boulder, near the foothills of the Rockies and far from the streets of Brooklyn where he was born and raised. He is the father of three amazing humans, each of whom cares deeply about the love, safety, and belonging of others.

“If you want to be a better leader, or a better person, or both, read this book. A beautifully written, achingly honest account of why you can’t grow a business without growing yourself.” — Angela Duckworth“Solid and full, this book is pure Jerry. It’s overflowing with love and care and most of all, with truth. The truth that any of us can embrace if we care enough: You are not alone. This isn’t a book about leadership, it’s a book about being human. Which, of course, makes it the essential book about leadership. The one to read first and the one to read last.” — Seth Godin“In these beautifully written pages—full of engaging stories, bedrock truths, and practical tools—you’ll learn about Jerry Colonna’s fascinating journey, about his insightful way of working with leaders, and (most important) about yourself. Having worked with Jerry, I have every reason to believe that this book will help transform you and the way you work to the benefit of all concerned.” — Parker J. Palmer“This book is filled with honesty, vulnerability, and insight. This book teaches us to be brave and pursue radical self-inquiry in an effort to get to know ourselves, to be truthful with ourselves, and to love ourselves. In this pursuit Jerry shines a light on a path that defines a healthier sense of what it means to be a leader. There are countless books offering various ways to become a better leader in the business world. But this is the only book with the insight and wisdom to offer a unique perspective: to be a better leader requires us to be a better human.”  — Bijan Sabet“Reboot is a tour de force – brilliant, brave and deeply emotionally resonant. It will inspire those who may sorely need, but don’t seek help, to act. Reboot is powerful, penetrating and psychologically masterful. It’s a gift.” — Dr. Rory Rothman“An unusually raw and revealing exploration of how our leadership journeys are shaped by the defining moments of our childhood...” — Adam Grant
