The Inspired Leader

A great deal of attention is paid to the importance of leaders inspiring other people. But how do leaders discover and maintain the inspiration they need first – for themselves?

The Inspired Leader helps you explore your own answers to this question. What is it that lifts your spirit and motivation as a leader? And how can you enjoy this invigorating experience more intensely and frequently over the course of your life?

The book is based on research into the experiences of leaders from many different walks of life. It combines insights from their personal stories with those from the latest behavioural science, thereby providing an uplifting guide for anyone seeking a more inspired life as a leader.

A highly relevant and compelling read whatever your level of experience.”
