Books by Richard Boston, founder of LeaderSpace
In a world that’s increasingly complex and interconnected, where trust is no longer a given, we need leaders that are more Authentic, Responsible and Courageous.
This “practical, thought-provoking, highly-researched and eminently readable” book walks with you, not judging you. It accepts that these three ‘ARC qualities’ can be hard to live up to, and it helps you and your people get a whole lot better at doing so.
What if the ways you think about yourself, the world and everyone in it were the human equivalent of your own internal ‘operating system’?
What if you could upgrade that operating system, evolving it as radically now as you did as a child? Upgrade gives you the tools to do just that. It’ll help you achieve better outcomes with a lot less effort; thrive in the face of fiendishly complex problems; navigate stakeholders’ diverse, evolving needs; take relationships to a whole new level; resolve dilemmas and reduce polarization; adapt and evolve as quickly as the world is changing around you. Not only that: it’ll help you help others develop, as well.
Whether you’ve just one boss or multiple senior stakeholders, you’ll find this book full of tips, tools and challenging questions to help you get the most from what is one of the most important relationships in your working life.
Featured in The Financial Times, The Telegraph, Sloan Magazine, on BBC Radio, and in HR Magazine’s “Best of HR”. It’s a book that’ll also get you and your team thinking differently about your own approach to leadership.
