Becoming Better by Ryan Gottfredson
In Becoming Better, Wall Street Journal and USA Today best-selling author Ryan Gottfredson, Ph.D., addresses why traditional personal and leadership development efforts often stall: they prioritize skills and actions (the "Doing Side") over identity and mindset.
The book centers on cultivating your "Being Side"—the underlying foundation made up of your mindsets, emotional depth, and capacity for internal self-regulation. By shifting focus from external behaviors to upgrading your internal operating system, Gottfredson provides a science-backed framework designed to help leaders and professionals break through growth plateaus, achieve sustainable transformation, and unlock their full potential.
