52 Leadership Stories: Lessons in Talent, Culture and Change (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781835562581)

Ideas have the power to change the world or at least change our part of the world. They have the power to provide fresh perspectives, open doors to new possibilities, unlock intractable problems and inspire new directions.

The 52 stories in this book are drawn from the author's 35 year international career covering four themes of leadership, culture, talent and change. Each story offers a glimpse into the challenges and opportunities he encountered, lessons learned, and the ideas that emerged along the way. You will see some common themes, some ideas that have acted as a foundation to his perspectives.

There is the power of questions to cause a moment of reflection that transforms thinking and action. The importance and awareness of mindsets and mental models behind the actions that we take. The fact that much in business is about managing polarities rather than landing on a definitive answer. The power of seeing systems and the human side of change. Originally published in his weekly blog they are now expanded and edited as an accessible reference for the reader to dip in and be inspired.
