Publisher's Summary
What does it mean to 'be a leader'?
What does true leadership look like in the 2020s, when we're facing complexity and challenges in every direction - from climate disaster to political division, and inequality to consumer mistrust?
And how can we be part of the solution, while crafting a meaningful and satisfying career?
The answers aren't simple, but Holly Ransom is closer to finding them than most. Barely into her 20s, since chairing the G20 Youth Summit in 2014, Holly has been working with and learning from the heads of countries, companies and charities to help them disrupt what they do and change the world for the better.
In her fearless and widely researched manifesto, this innovative young thinker shows how it is within everyone's reach, everyone's ability and everyone's power to be an effective leader - in business and beyond.
Through three principles - mindset, method and mastery - you'll discover how to first lead yourself, then others. And you'll benefit from the wisdom of the luminaries Holly has interviewed, from Susan Cain and Condoleezza Rice to Barack Obama and Malcolm Gladwell.
This is the path to the leading edge - and becoming the leader the world needs you to be.

Holly Ransom gives us Leadership Gold
I've had Holly in my ears for two weeks and she hasn't failed to deliver.
Her stories, perspectives, tried and tested techniques have all contributed to cemented nuggets of gold.
She has summarised and encapsulated the key points of leadership and leadership development that we need to refresh our approach to bringing the best out in others.

An authentic read will really world experience
I thoroughly enjoyed reading and listening to Holly Ransom. Her insights and sharing from business leaders and influences of culture sports and politics is admirable. I took a lot away from this book and like Hollys grandma at the end in the epilogue I believe we can change and I have hope. Thank you Holly

A must read
Holly Ransom’s book is a must read. I especially enjoyed the chapters on personal leadership and fantastic stories from an eclectic selection of leaders. It’s full of fun facts and worth quoting stats, it’s personal and is told with great humour and energy.

A look at modern vs traditional leadership for a c
Holly does a good job and gives a lot of real life examples and stories. There are some real gems in this book that make you think, and conversely there are some parts of the book that I wondered where it was going with regard leadership. Overall a thought provoking listen for those that want a look at modern leadership trends versus traditional in a progressive changing world.

Holly is effortlessly positive and her vast breadth of knowledge and skills are beautifully brought together here to provide a wonderful tool for us all to reflect on how we live our lives. She references many other leading edge authors and the lessons she's learned from her own personal interactions with them. An insightful and compelling listen / read.
