About the Book
Lead from Where You Are is a practical guide to leadership for those at an early stage of their career. It will show you how to have a positive influence no matter the level you’re working at, help you understand the power structures you will be operating in and explain what leadership looks like in different organizations. Throughout, this book makes the point that leadership is a collective process that is contributed to by everyone in a company. Once you’ve finished, you’ll understand how you can take part in this process from your junior position in the workplace.

“This book is a breath of fresh air. It feels genuinely new – accessible without ever being simplistic, and wonderfully free of the usual leadership pretense. What I admire most is how it strips away the mythology of leadership and shows it as something real, human and attainable.” Wilsey Mockett, European Talent Director, Panasonic

“In a world where real leadership is required more than ever, this book provides a reflective, considered and actionable way to understand and practice leadership – from where you are right now. The authors convey complex concepts in accessible ways and allow readers to engage positively with the challenges and opportunities that leadership represents. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.” Joanne Murphy, Professor of Inclusive Leadership, Birmingham Business School, University of Birmingham
