Description
Big dreams stall when willpower wears thin. The Persistence Factor shows you how to keep going—smartly, sustainably, and together.
Physician–executive Dr Kevin Fickenscher distills forty-plus years of leading rural clinics, Fortune-500 C-suites, and national policy tables into one repeatable blueprint: the Persistence Cycle of Purpose → Consider → Commit → Focus → Assess → Integrate — and then repeat until the breakthrough sticks . Packed with field stories that range from transforming prairie health systems to advising Congress on digital medicine, the book reveals why long-game change hinges less on heroic stamina than on disciplined reflection and adaptive iteration.
Inside you’ll discover The FAIR-CTI ethos—Fairness, Attitude, Integrity, Respect, Consistency, Transparency, and Inclusion—that turns trust into the “mortar” holding teams together through stormy seasons A Confidence Loop to convert criticism into renewed momentum without losing sight of your purpose Failure as Strategic Fuel—how to mine setbacks for data, allies, and narrative power The Leader’s Self-Retreat—a step-by-step reset that clarifies values, reallocates energy, and prevents burnout
Whether you’re launching a social-impact start-up, re-architecting healthcare, or rallying a community around bold policy, The Persistence Factor hands you the compass and the toolkit. Dr Fickenscher’s warm storytelling voice makes complex strategy feel like a fireside chat, while ready-to-use worksheets and reflection prompts turn insight into immediate action.
If you believe tomorrow can be better—but know tomorrow will fight back—this book equips you to outlast the resistance, inspire steadfast allies, and translate purpose into a legacy that endures. Read it, apply it, and—most of all—persist.
