BOOK REVIEW

MOVING FORWARD

The changing times calls for an update of leadership styles. STEPHEN ENGELS presents the key attributes needed for the new paradigm, from the personal to the professional

Nothing great has ever been achieved by standing still. The New Success Paradigm: A Personal Leadership Discovery Platform not only brings that principle home, it gives its readers the tools they need to make a change and take themselves and their organisations forward. And it couldn’t have come at a better time. The world needs change more than ever. Amidst the chaos that today reigns across the globe, one simply cannot ignore how current events have adversely impacted the lives of people in unique ways, and how they have negatively impacted the sustainability of our planet and the generation of business profi ts. By developing the theme of shifting leadership dynamics and leadership styles, The New Success Paradigm: A Personal Leadership Discovery Platform shines a timely light on the need for leaders to move on from conventional leadership roles and inspire others with self-esteem and a culture of change that starts with themselves. It’s a wake-up call for leaders who are not reaching their full potential and feel they’re stuck in a rut. And it’s chock-full with advice. The book invites readers to create a more successful life though personal leadership, which is a vital foundation for leadership excellence; to learn about themes that are the real drivers of success in every person’s life; to discover and start using the unique set of 27 ELS Dynamic Exercises and the ELS Goal System to expand, or transform their life and business; and to discover and adopt a novel paradigm for success on a personal, private and professional level. The book’s author, Stephen Engels, is the Managing Director of ELS Management Sàrl – a business consultancy based in Switzerland that specialises in leadership and management education towards business excellence. Having conducted more than 20 years of research into what makes an effective leader, with a specifi c focus on personal leadership, he has a keen insight into the key attributes that are needed to steer people in the right direction. According to Stephen, “The starting point for a dynamic leadership transformation of people and companies is to stimulate an awareness of what life holds for each of us individually, as well as for us collectively. This raised sense of awareness is extremely important in developing our dreams for the future.”
