74  Your Best Leadership Isn’t In A Book

Not every leadership book or podcast will help you lead, grow or perform better.
➡️ Because most were written by people wired differently to you.

What works brilliantly for them…
➡️ Might leave you feeling drained, stuck, or second-guessing yourself.

💡 The fastest way to grow isn’t by becoming more like them.
It’s by becoming more like
you. Intentionally.

When you understand:

🔹 The strengths that give you energy
🔹 How you best take in and process information
🔹 What truly motivates you

…you stop wasting effort on strategies that don’t fit – and double down on the ones that do.

That’s when things shift:

You lead with more confidence
You perform with less resistance
You get better results – and feel better doing it

🚀 It’s not fluff. It’s performance strategy.

🎯 Try this today:

🔹 Think of a time when work felt easy and effective.
🔹 What were you doing? What environment were you in?
🔹 How can you recreate one small part of that today?

💡  Your most effective leadership starts with understanding how you work best – not with copying someone else’s playbook.

👉🏼 I help leaders discover their leadership style – and how to approach their role to maximise energy, clarity and performance.
