The working world has changed. In an era where the cost of living is rising and competition is rife, it's no longer good enough to have a university degree, a cushy corporate job and a strong work ethic. More and more, people have to stand out to make it. Knowing how to become indispensable is more important than ever – whether that’s as a junior employee just starting out, a mid-level manager looking to take the next step, or a senior leader who needs to keep their skills sharp and their mind fresh.

Leadership is not some special club, open only to elites. It's not a gold star given to those with fancy titles and expensive degrees. Leadership is what we all try to do every day. Based on the author's hard-won experience as a Global CEO, this smart, fun book delivers a step-by-step working manual on how to lead - for anyone. Full of simple and direct approaches, it demystifies an over-analysed subject to get to the heart of modern leadership: the life-changing, career-transforming power to get stuff done.

Nothing stays the same. The only constant we now face is change, and the demand for those who can grasp its opportunities has never been greater. Organisations today must learn to continuously adapt - and adapt faster than their competition. It is this that will drive them forward and it is this that is the modern leader's greatest challenge. Despite what we're told, leading change is not a secret knowledge available only to a chosen few. This book cuts through the bullsh*t to enable everybody to do it and do it well.
