A cutting-edge guide to avoiding tech distraction and achieving authentic leadership, from leading experts in business psychology and mindfulness.
It’s no secret that we live in a hyper-connected world, full of distraction and information overload. So how can leaders cut through the noise, to lead effectively despite these challenges? The Clear Leader provides evidence-based guidance to doing just that, helping modern leaders to strategize, prioritise, and connect, while sustaining their own wellbeing.
The authors identify and provide guidance on four key leadership capabilities:
- Purpose: getting and staying clear about your purpose and communicating that to your team.
- Priorities: being conscious about what you put your attention and energy into as a leader.
- People: leading people with your full attention – and theirs.
- Personal: managing your attention and energy in your personal life.
The Clear Leader provides a bold new perspective on modern leadership. It is a culmination of the authors’ own academic research; James N. Donald as a Senior Lecturer in business psychology and Craig S. Hassed as an internationally renowned mindfulness expert and trainer. Between them, they provide insightful and accessible advice to leaders of all types, going beyond surface level to determine the inner attributes it takes to be a natural, respected, and indeed clear leader
