Do Lead by Les McKeown demolishes the myths that have paralysed leadership in our modern era, then provides new, relevant tools for the job. You’ll discover that we can all lead. And what’s more, we should. Because effective leadership is goal- not people-oriented. It’s about the person with the right skills putting themselves forward.

We totally agree with The Do Books Company mission: getting people to Do more. A simple mind shift, a shot of inspiration to help you get started or a new skill or craft, these kinds of doing are at the core of their inspirational pocket guidebooks. This guide book is part of their range of Smart Working books we offer at Misc.

Real-world leadership is very different from all that the media would have us believe. Forget the dashing swashbuckler, effective leadership is typically understated. It’s the myriad small things that make the big things possible.

Whether you are new to the game or reigniting a dormant passion, start leading from where you are, right now, and make a difference.

You can lead. Yes, you.

Misc also offers Do Purpose, Do Protect, Do Story and Do Design of the Slow Living Range.
