Description

We each have an internal compass that points to our True North. For Linda Fitz-Alan, that True North carried with it a constructive restlessness. Constructive: serving a useful purpose; related to construction or creation; helping to improve through advice or criticism. Restlessness: the inability to rest, relax, or be still; always moving. The kind of restlessness that carried Linda from Australia to the United States and back again--and then on to the Middle East, where she made her mark as CEO and Registrar of the cutting-edge Abu Dhabi Global Market Courts, was a profound voice that serves each of us--and us alone. Constructive restlessness always believes we can do it. It is a quest toward our highest self. Rather than live with a lifetime of "what ifs" and deep regrets, constructive restlessness urges us to make transformative changes in our lives . . . and to take the path less traveled--but also the path that will push us to excellence, to constantly grow, learn new things, evolve, transform, and stretch, both in our careers and as people. Told with candor and inspiring warmth, True North will urge you to seek that star in the sky that speaks to you and you alone.
