Based on years of original research, this book controversially counters almost every existing leadership model and approach.
It shows how as leaders rise to senior levels, their roles become less about doing things that directly drive results and more about directing and supporting others to achieve objectives. Using case studies and research insights the authors reveal how leadership success is thus not so much about having the right core capabilities, but about creating the right environment.
Using the analogy of a smartphone operating system (OS), the book presents a new way of thinking about leadership. The authors provide a clear and practical framework to follow and show how your leadership OS becomes the impact you have, the imprint you make and the foundation of your legacy as a leader.
After reading it, you will learn:
· How to diagnose the impact you have as a leader and understand the OS you create
· How famous business and societal leaders have created effective – and sometimes ineffective – OSs
· How to optimise your OS to produce the best results· How to get people working together effectively, and be a high-performing leader
Providing you with practical and easy to follow advice, this book will show you how leadership success is not about having the core capabilities, but about creating the right operating systems for your organisation.

“A refreshing break from the tradition of overconfident leadership formulas that underestimate the complexity of the modern business world, this book excellently addresses the question of how to provide effective leadership in an ever faster changing context. Informed by a clear model and researched top tips, it provides a highly useful resource to help leaders both adapt to the challenges they face in today’s increasingly complex world, and ensure they create the right environment for the younger generation of talent emerging in firms.” (Caroline Vanovermeire, Director of Talent, Leadership & Organisational Development, Dentsu Aegis Network, UK)
