Welcome to People & Purpose – the Positive Leadership Journal
I am delighted that you are reading this and would like to welcome you to People & Purpose.
We have designed our publication for managers and leaders – both practicing and aspiring – who are looking for new and challenging ideas, best practice insights and practical resources to add to their toolkit.
Do you want to thrive in your leadership role? Are you looking for tools to help you manage your team better? Would you like to make improvements in your organisation?
We believe that taking a strength-based approach, focusing on positive behaviours and building on what is already working well allows us all to do more of what we are best at. You can then reach enhanced performance in both in your own leadership practice and within your team and organisation.
It is in this endeavour that People & Purpose explores topics such as purposeful leadership, organisational strategy, change management and team development.
People & Purpose can help you develop your skills and understanding as a positive leader, whether you are an experienced manager or aspiring to the role. Learn new approaches to successfully tackling organisational challenges through the resources we share with you, such as how-to guides and management tools you can immediately put into practice. Gain insights into effective methods through case studies and leader interviews. Find out about worthwhile advice and books that can support your work and career.
In the inaugural issue we are privileged to hear from Gordon Tredgold, one of Inc Magazine’s top 100 Leadership and Management Experts and Speakers and blogger extraordinaire. Read about the results of KPMG’s CEO Outlook Survey, learn how to build a strong team and navigate your career. Our introductory 101 section features change management as its first topic.
I hope you enjoy reading, watching and listening to all we have to offer in this issue and we would love to hear your thoughts.
