Big Leadership, How CEOs Create The Future
Stacey Ashley
April 30, 2023
IF NOT NOW, WHEN?

The last few years have changed the expectation of leadership. No longer only about decision making, critical thinking, and delivering a strategic plan, but becoming a fuller, more holistic, and human approach to leadership. Leadership that is impactful, ever enhancing and evolving. That has a greater perspective, considering both tactical solutions and strategic relevance. Leadership that is a true reflection of what a community needs to support and lead them.

What got us here will not get us there. We need Big Leadership. We need bigger thinking. We need bolder decision making.. We need brave action to create the future. This book offers straightforward insight into what makes it important for leaders to adopt Big Leadership, and the impacts if they do not. As well as providing practical ideas and approaches for how.

It is time for leaders to go big.

You're On Mute, Strategies For Savvy Leaders To Show Up Online With Confidence & Credibility
Stacey Ashley
December 09, 2021
ARE YOU ON MUTE?

As the world scrambled to move business operations online with the outbreak of COVID, and people were challenged to become familiar with a new way of working, ‘You’re On Mute’ became one of the most used phrases in business around the globe.

Now two years later, it’s no laughing matter. With more than half of employees wanting to work remotely at least 50% of the time, and more than 75% of departments expected to have some or all of their team working remotely within the next few years, online is a significant feature of the world of work.

Leveraging online is strategically significant, and likely mission critical, for creating sustainable and relevant organisations. Yet many leaders have either failed to recognise the importance of operating effectively online or failed to take decisive action.

Are you still on mute?

This book asks the important questions to help you optimise your leadership presence, influence, and authority online.
