The Leader’s Source Code (Published April 2020)

2020

  • Book Author

    2020

    Since opening the coaching business in March 2008, I've believed that the world’s most valuable asset is talent, and the most valuable skill is leadership. Then, having been asked by clients for years to put some ideas and learnings around this on paper, I eventually decided to write The Leaders Source Code. My aim was to provide practical examples of how key principles were identified, developed and applied while coaching CEOs, executives and entrepreneurs around the world. The intention was to articulate the principles in a practical and demonstrated way, with the hope that it might contribute towards helping leaders and entrepreneurs be genuine game-changers. And also, to help those making the leap for the first time, to do it, and do it well, no matter what your current situation may be.
