‘This is essential reading for all leaders’ Sir Nick Young
‘This is an energising and liberating book...’
‘A must-read for anyone seeking to lead with courage, empathy and conviction in today's unpredictable and challenging world.’
I suspect this is a book I’ll keep coming back to, to help me in my own leadership practice, and each time will find something new and invaluable in its pages.
A wise and compassionate look at living through leadership crises and difficult relationships and moving from surviving to thriving.
Martin’s portrayal of ‘wild water experiences’ resonates deeply with challenges and opportunities I have seen in my part of the world [Asia Pacific].
The age I have reached and the age we are living through, both tell me it’s time for me to do things differently. So I have written a book. Actually, I have lived a book – for eight years from conception (October 2016) to completion.
The book I have written is for ‘Good Leaders… ‘ in organizations, large and small, everywhere. I believe that the power of their collective response to ‘... Turbulent Times’ can and will surely tip the balance towards creating a decent, civil and sustainable society for all.
(As well as to my wife Korinna) Good Leaders in Turbulent Times; How to Navigate Wild Waters at Work is dedicated to ‘... all the leaders whom I will never know who, facing the challenges of turbulent times, are courageously aspiring to be the good leaders who will sustain a decent, just and civil society, so we can all live together well for the foreseeable future.’
