Have you ever struggled to build a high performing team?

Are you missing the fundamental skills required to become an authentic leader?

Now, Lead Others
Nathan Strife was on top of the world. Three months ago, he’d landed his dream job, a leadership position he’d coveted for years. Now, he’s hit rock bottom. The pressure and disillusionment that have surfaced with his leadership style have become unbearable. A sudden turn of events necessitates a trip back to his native Ireland where fate throws him a curveball. Thrust into a high-stakes situation, he’s forced to confront his leadership failures head-on. Witnessing a different kind of leader in action — one forged in the crucible of mountain rescue — Nathan starts to question everything he thought he knew about leadership. Will the unforgiving mountain terrain become the stage for Nathan’s personal transformation? Can he rediscover the true meaning of leadership and find the courage to climb out of his professional despair?

Now, Lead Others is a fable about common leadership challenges seen in many organisations throughout the world. This easy to read story follows Nathan Strife as he is thrust into a high-stakes mountain rescue where everything he thought he knew about leadership is thrown into question. During his adventure Nathan learns the difference between leadership theory and the practical application of leadership skills in the real world.

Crafted within the pages of this adventure are the core principles required to:
– Become an authentic leader
– Build trust through vulnerability
– Build a high-performing team
– Delegate effectively
– Provide feedback that sticks, and so much more!
