About this listen

"THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL BOOKS EVER WRITTEN ABOUT LEADERSHIP." Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of THINK AGAIN and host of the TED podcast WorkLife

*** THE SUNDAY TIMES HARDBACK NON-FICTION & BUSINESS BESTSELLER ***
*** PORCHLIGHT AWARDS: BEST LEADERSHIP & STRATEGY BOOK ***

The Promises of Giants is for anyone who aspires to make a difference. Over fourteen promises, it intertwines personal anecdotes with the latest research to provide practical, proven tips and strategies to empower you to maximize your own potential and inspire others. It is a how-to guide for winning, rooted in the belief that the most unlikely of people, in the most improbable of circumstances, can become extraordinary.

We have never needed people with the skill and will to collaborate to create a better world more than now. We need people who are willing to fill the leadership void. People who will embrace the influence they have. People who believe in improving society and workplace culture - not only because it makes life better, but because it is proven to yield positive results. We need more leaders.

With increased interest in Diversity & Inclusion and how this shows up in our organisations, this book offers powerful prompts to help us go beyond surface level D&I initiatives to bring about meaningful and sustained change in our organisations. John challenges us to keep our biases in check, to embrace discomfort, and to challenge the status quo with respect and dignity. Highly recommend!!
