In the minefield of leadership literature available today, this book provides clarity, adding fresh and unique insights to critical leadership skills. The author draws upon his own unique experience from an unforgiving environment, forged from his background in the military and the international corporate world.
This book is for you if you:
- Want to be an effective leader.
- Are willing to transform into the change you wish to see.
- Are committed to improving the lives of those you lead.
If this sounds like you and you are willing to do what it takes, you are invited to take an inner journey of self-reflection. Self-reflection is critical for leadership development. In the process, improve your personal and professional life and discover practical tools to:
Increase mental resilience - These unpredictable times place more demands on people mentally, emotionally, spiritually and possibly even physically. This is the 'new norm' for which mental resilience is essential.
Build a sense of trust and safety - Unlike mainstream leadership literature which tends to focus mainly on the vision of the leader, this book also focuses on the leader's ability to build trust and provide a sense of 'safety' by 'holding the space' in these times of VUCA.
Engender ownership - The Selfless Leader sees the Collective as fellow stakeholders. In times of crisis, 'self-preservation' for the Selfless Leader is 'collective preservation', seeing the people as an extension of oneself.
Own who you are. Own the mission. Own the result.
