Somewhere along the way between the innocence of the early twentieth century and the mayhem of the twenty first century things became very complicated. The internet made customers much more intelligent. The new economies shifted the global power balance. The apparent separation of peoples and countries disappeared and climate change, terrorism and the technology explosion told a different story. Leaders more than ever have got to know what they are doing. Each and every leader needs to understand their own response to the challenges they face. This book poses three fundamental questions that will bring a new clarity to your leadership and will put you firmly in the driving seat of your most important decisions. This book is your leadership base camp; Read, rest, reflect and gear up for the most important journey of your career. Reviews "There are too many leadership authors today that over sell and under deliver. Robin Ryde is different. With energy, wit and clarity, Robin has found a way to cut through the rubbish and see straight to the heart of the leadership challenge. Buckle up for a fascinating journey through the real world of leadership." —Robert Swan OBE, the first person in history to walk to the North and South Pole "An indispensable read for anyone in their first 90 days. Robin Ryde makes it all seem so damn simple!" —Jim Harris, management thinker & author of ‘Blindsided!’ and ‘The Learning Paradox "Robin Ryde is one of those rare individuals who effectively combines deep insight and research with a practical make-it-happen approach. This book will help many current and would-be leaders to find their way in rising to the challenge of leadership in ever more demanding times." —David Macleod, author of ‘The Extra Mile
