Produktbeschreibung

Do you find yourself questioning what real leadership looks like in today's chaotic world of headlines, hashtags and hollow promises?

In a world where charisma often outranks character, Deciphering Leadership: The Emerging Leaders' Guide to Navigating Power + Politics, Gaining Influence and Achieving Sustainable Success strips leadership down to its core, revealing the often messy, complex and deeply human journey behind becoming a True Leader.

In this eye-opening book, leadership coach and culture strategist Heather Connery confronts the myths of perfection and power that define many modern leadership narratives. Drawing from academic research, lived corporate experience and interviews with nearly 40 diverse leaders - from students to C-suite executives - Connery explores the subtle but vital difference between leaders who perform and those who genuinely lead. Through this book, you'll discover:

• How to recognise the warning signs of "False Gods" in leadership, and how to anchor yourself in the steadier path of a Real Model.
• What it really takes to shift from "doing" to leading, especially when self-doubt and imposter syndrome creep in.
• The emotional and practical tools that help you lead with confidence in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world.
• How culture, politics and power dynamics shape leadership success, and what to do when you're navigating environments that resist change.
• Why moments of failure, burnout or loss of trust don't have to define you, and how to reset, realign, and keep leading with workthenticity integrity.

Whether you're just stepping into leadership, navigating its toughest seasons or mentoring the next generation, Deciphering Leadership: The Emerging Leaders' Guide to Navigating Power + Politics, Gaining Influence and Achieving Sustainable Success offers a roadmap to lasting, ethical impactful influence, where what matters most isn't your title, but the your truth.
