"Finally—a leadership book that courageously integrates the inner journey of consciousness with real-world skill-building...

The Leadership Journeyman invites readers to see leadership not as a destination, but as a continuous practice of growth. Drawing on two decades as a CEO coach and Vistage Chair, Peter Schwartz blends hard-earned insights from working with hundreds of top executives with the transformative lessons of his pilgrimage along Spain's Camino de Santiago.

Through vivid stories and practical tools, Schwartz reveals the powerful interplay between the inner game—self-awareness, values, and mindset—and the outer game—skills, strategy, and execution. Four Camino “revelations” frame the journey: travel light, travel with soft eyes, find joy in the walking, and embrace wabi-sabi, the beauty of imperfection. These lessons help leaders shed outdated success strategies, adapt to complexity, and lead with authenticity and resilience.

Readers will discover how to:

• Balance internal growth with external results.
• Lead with a Curious Mind, Instinctual Gut, and Open Heart.
• Build stronger teams through peer advisory and coaching relationships.
• Navigate volatility and uncertainty with clarity and courage.

Designed for CEOs, senior executives, and leadership coaches, The Leadership Journeyman combines research from adult development theory with practical frameworks and reflective exercises. The result is a guide that's both inspirational and actionable—a book that belongs on the shelf of any leader committed to ongoing development.

More than a leadership manual, this is a trusted companion for the long road ahead. For those ready to embrace impermanence, challenge assumptions, and keep refining their craft,
