About this listen

Why are we still led by outdated male-centric leadership thinking and behaviors? How well has it, does it and will it serve us considering humanity is in a meta-crisis?

This book explores these questions and the importance of breaking up the leadership monopoly held by men since the dawn of civilization. Monopolies are rarely a good thing. Strong leadership is often associated with masculine qualities, such as competition, the survival of the fittest, and tribal mentality, but left unchecked, this approach is dysfunctional and destroying us and everything we live for.

The leaders of today should not be the leaders of tomorrow. A more balanced, holistic, inclusive, ecologically minded - altogether more feminine - style of leadership will be more powerful in the future; one which prioritizes our collective wellbeing above all else.

Highlighting the urgent need to evolve our leadership culture to solve challenges at all levels, from the decline in employee engagement in business to the existential challenges we face, The Leadership We Need challenges our ingrained leadership mindset.

Contrasting traditional, male-centric leadership approaches with the incredible work and wisdom of leaders, many women, whose humble, unwavering will to lead in collaboration and in service of others offers a new approach, this book provides the blueprint for turning things around for business and nations. The time for transformative change is now. This will be new type of leadership that serves us, the people, and all living things.

The structure of the book comprises:
*A list of compelling reasons why we need new era of leadership
*A 10-step roadmap for how to break-up the monopolized leadership culture
*Three self-assessments which will challenge our ingrained leadership mindset - the Value Assessment, the Purpose Assessment and the Strength Assessment
