New Book Challenges Performative Leadership and Introduces a Neuroinclusive Model for Human-Centered Workplaces

Chandler, AZ - February 23, 2026 - Award-winning hybrid publisher Press 49 announces the upcoming release of “Rewriting the Rules: A Leadership Model for a Neuroinclusive, Human-Centered Workplace,” a timely and transformative new book by leadership coach, consultant, and speaker Ron Sosa. The book will be released on March 3, 2026, in paperback and eBook formats and is currently available for preorder on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

At a time when organizations are confronting burnout, disengagement, and calls for more inclusive leadership, “Rewriting the Rules” offers a bold alternative to traditional leadership models built on performance, conformity, and charisma. Instead, Sosa presents a practical, human-centered framework that helps leaders build environments where authenticity, regulation, and connection drive results.

For more than two decades, Sosa worked in veterinary leadership, rising through the ranks while striving to meet invisible standards of professionalism. Despite outward success, he experienced chronic exhaustion, masking, and self-doubt. Later-life diagnoses of ADHD and autism reframed his experience and revealed a deeper truth: The leadership system, not the individual, was broken.

Blending personal narrative with actionable structure, Sosa introduces a four-part leadership model, Reflect, Implement, Sustain, and Elevate (R.I.S.E.), designed to help leaders rebuild their approach from the inside out. The model equips readers to replace performative leadership habits with emotionally intelligent, sustainable, and inclusive practices.

Readers will learn how to lead without masks or burnout by grounding leadership in emotional regulation and authentic connection; build neuroinclusive workplaces that treat difference as a strength; redefine professionalism around humanity and sustainable impact; and shift from performative leadership to purpose-driven, people-centered growth.

“This is not another book about managing neurodivergent employees,” Sosa says. “It’s leadership through neurodiversity. When we redesign leadership with human nervous systems in mind, everyone benefits.”

Written with honesty, clarity, and empathy, the book speaks to CEOs, HR leaders, team managers, practice leaders, and emerging professionals alike. It is especially relevant for organizations seeking practical neuroinclusive leadership strategies and healthier workplace cultures.
