Book Description

Perhaps the most important leadership conversation begins by asking: If we do not risk anything in our very comfortable world, then what is leadership really about? Bold Reinvented brings a sense of urgency to awaken the dormant leaders that surround us, starting with ourselves. Reading it, you will learn what a bold leader does, and how. The book challenges our human habit of choosing self-preservation over power to transform, revealing boldness within us to impact the world around us. It addresses our constant struggle to hold a bold vision that matters to us and the discomfort that comes with it. It invites us to understand how in that way we contribute to the smallness rather than the greatness of ourselves, our organisations and worlds. Too often we are told what to do to develop good leadership. This book does not do that. Instead, it helps us with how to think so that we know what to do to access our outstanding bold leadership. Reading this book, we learn about: our boldness that is limitless if we know where to look for it. The only reason we remain blind to our bold leadership capacity is because we are focused on surviving first. the identity we have created for ourselves that may be an illusion. We can become a much bigger, bolder identity that leaves a legacy. the structured steps within the SOUL Framework that allow us to turn difficulties on our leadership journey into allies. All we need to do is embrace the unknown and uncertainty by simply boldly daring to know. The "SOUL" framework as a central concept to this book activates the next level of our courage, consciousness and convictions, making our leadership contribution everything but small. SOUL stands for Self, Other, Universe and Legacy. Bold Reinvented helps us to take our leadership vision seriously and recognise our discomfort as merely an indication of the importance of our work so that we can exercise the leadership both us and this world are hungry for. For all those who know that being of greatest leadership service to the world is not about giving the right answers but boldly asking the right and often uncomfortable questions, the enquiries made in this book will surely leave an indelible impression.
