In this important book the authors provide a new view of leadership that takes us beyond the traditional 'heroic' image of leaders and instead provides a new narrative that recognises the importance of context. As a leader I have always believed in the informal power of networks and convening to bring people together to achieve great things. This is the first book that provides an insight to my version of leadership. Dame Jayne-Anne Gadhia, CBE We only truly grow up when we know what it is to be fully human. In our hands we are being given technology tools that are transforming what we can do and how we grow. But just because we can do it, doesn't make it good for us. The world needs leaders who thrive on living in this tension and use tools for growing transparency of truth. That's good for all of us. - Ruth Dearnley OBE, CEO STOP THE TRAFFIK Mike and James have produced a timely gem of a handbook for leaders at all levels. Leading amidst the profound shifts in how we live, work and relate to one another demands we evolve how we lead and Network Leadership shows us how. - Neil Ventura, Executive Vice President, Strategy & Innovation (De Beers Group) In Network Leadership, James and Mike connect the dots beautifully in laying out what it means to be an agile and resilient leader in a rapidly changing world. I hope that you will find in Network Leadership, tangible ideas to help you elegantly navigate your networks and galvanise action towards the change you believe in. - Demi Edosomwan, Managing Director, TotalEnergies Ventures
