Legacy Leadership

Are you a Legacy Leader?

Between 2010 and 2017, headlines with the word ‘crisis’ and the name of one of the Forbes top 100 companies appeared 80 percent more often than in the previous decade.

There is a leadership crisis in the world today. According to customers, employees, emerging leaders, the public, our communities, and our regulators, there is a significant disconnect between the current and traditional leadership and expectations models – the leadership gap.

This book will show you the silver lining through more than a decade of crisis; the opportunity amongst uncertainty and volatility, because a new type of leadership has emerged – Legacy Leadership. This is leadership that drives personal and organisational resilience resulting in the ability to « bounce forward » rather than back in terms of emotional resilience, organisational agility and performance.

This is an « easy to read » book with insights, challenges and frameworks to support and encourage current and emerging leaders in their pursuit of Legacy Leadership.

The Legacy Leadership model is the result of insights from over 2,286 conversations with 762 global leaders over eight years. This book provides a compass for responsible and sustainable leadership that creates positive impacts in business performance, social and environmental impacts.

Legacy Leadership has six core foundations which should be the focus of all leaders, emerging leaders, managers and influencers. They are the foundations upon which Legacy Leadership is based. With these foundations in place, the twelve principles provide the guidance in optimising decision-making when leaders are cognitively challenged.
