The Leader-Shift Playbook - 4...

Phil Wilson

The ultimate game plan to optimizing yourself, your team, and your impact  


Many believe the key to leadership is having the right combination of tools, strategies, and personal qualities. But leadership is about mindset. Beliefs influence behavior, which directly impacts the culture and the growth and development (or not) of the people on a team. Only by shifting one’s beliefs can any leader affect real change. 


The Leader-Shift Playbook  outlines four game-changing mindset shifts for leaders that result in better performance and culture. Author and leadership coach Phillip B. Wilson reveals how simple changes to your beliefs in (1) your own impact, (2) yourself, (3) others, and (4) your relationships can lead to game-changing improvements. Based on in-depth research, decades of coaching experience that has transformed tens of thousands of leaders, and Wilson’s own hard-won lessons as a CEO, these leader-shifts will enable you to better connect with your team and contribute to a company culture where everyone feels encouraged to reach their highest potential. 


With practical takeaways and exercises, you will learn how to effectively transform your relationships, connections, and impact. The most effective, positive, and sustainable leadership starts with a leader’s belief in their own potential and in the potential of everyone they lead, so make your leader-shift today.

Eyewitness: The rise and fall of...

Christopher Davis

This audiobook is narrated by an Authorised Voice Replica.By the close of the last millennium Dorling Kindersley had become one of the most recognisable brands in publishing. Across the range of illustrated household reference titles, from children's books to travel guides, its distinctive look of colourful images cut out against a white background could be seen on bookshelves throughout the country – and indeed the publishing world.Apart from three minor acquisitions, DK had grown organically over 25 years to be a publicly listed company with a turnover of £200 million, some 1500 employees, publishing arms across the English language markets, a 50-strong international sales force that dealt with more than 400 publishers, a direct selling business with 30,000 independent distributors, and had expanded its skills for delivering handsomely designed reference books into the new media of videos, CD-ROMs and online educational content. Then a series of catastrophic printing decisions brought the company to its knees, and ultimately into the arms of Pearson.Christopher Davis is uniquely positioned to tell the story of DK's rise and fall. He joined the company at its foundation and in due course became Group Publisher. The narrative he provides is a dual one, encompassing the visionary genius of Peter Kindersley and the publishing revolution he fomented, and charting the remarkable, sometimes precarious, frequently hilarious, roller-coaster ride as the company grew from a handful of people in a studio in South London to a substantial global business.In the rapidly changing publishing climate of today, this book is also a nostalgic reminder of a time when creativity could flourish unburdened by the shackles of corporate bureaucracy.
