The Leadership Videos
Every leader starts off a little shaky!
Leadership is an essential skill, but many managers end up becoming accidental leaders, feeling completely overwhelmed by their position and what is expected of them.
What I am certain of is that leadership can be learned. Over the years I have helped hundreds or maybe even thousands of managers to become leaders, and some of the transformations in impact and confidence have been remarkable. The most important thing is to be open to development.
Put simply, being open to development WILL ensure you become a more effective leader.
Understanding how YOU impact others and how they impact on you, is the starting point for EVERY leader.
Being willing to open space to think and reflect on your role as a leader, and to learn effective leadership skills, is the key to growing from technical expert to inspiring strategist.

The Leadership Book
Step-by-Step guide to excellent Leadership
The Leadership Book, by Neil Jurd, has been written to encourage and enable effective leadership. Leadership is a simple but powerful concept which anyone with an open mind can apply. Leadership is about knowing where you are going and recruiting others to help. Leadership can be learned and anyone who chooses to work to improve their leadership will be able to do so. Better leadership means happier teams, and better output. The Leadership Book is split into four easily accessible chapters to help you to better understand leadership, people and ultimately how to lead individuals and teams.
Praise for The Leadership Book by Neil Jurd "Neil brings his passion for leader development together in this excellent book that you can keep referring to for inspiration and to help with personal reflection on leadership."
