The world of the 2020s is complex and demanding. We are faced with a myriad of difficult decisions about our present and future, driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the economic downturn, rising unemployment and inequalities, digital disruption, uncertain political environments, and climate change. In this book, leaders from around the world share their experiences in adapting to the changing world and the lessons they have learnt. They offer advice on mastering a diverse range of leadership concepts, skills, and behaviours to prepare for the challenges of the 21st century.

The easy-to-follow format is grouped around the core concepts of Leadership, entrepreneurship, and volunteering; Purpose and values; Authenticity, trust and presence; Strategising, thinking, and decision-making; Mentoring and development; Mental resilience; Diversity and inclusion; Negotiating and collaborating; and Social and environmental impact. Each of the 32 chapters takes you on a voyage of discovery to a wide range of "powers" and inspires you to use them to open new opportunities in your life and workplace.
