The New Alpha Male: How to Win the Game When the Rules Are Changing

Description

With keen insight into the changing state of masculinity, Lance Allred presents a bold new vision of a winning path forward for men. These days, we hear plenty about what's wrong with men—like toxic masculinity, patriarchy, mansplaining, and male privilege. But how does a man get it right? "Men are being asked to adapt to our changing world, yet many still want to play by the old rules," teaches Lance Allred. Now this former NBA star and leadership consultant presents a new game plan for evolving, growing, and succeeding in the modern era: The New Alpha Male. Having grown up in an ultra-patriarchal cult and succeeded in the gladiatorial arena of professional sports, Allred knows firsthand how the outdated model of masculinity works—and why it is failing both men and women today. "The old alpha male believes he is entitled to success," he writes. The new alpha rejects entitlement, fear, and cultural illusions in favor of strong guiding principles that honor the virtues of the masculine and the feminine.
