Steve Mostyn is an Associate Fellow at Oxford University’s Saïd Business School and has worked with some of the world’s top leaders and brightest business minds. Over the course of his career, he has witnessed business disruptions, transformations and challenges, distilling decades of experience and thousands of conversations into a series of simple but important questions that every leader should ask themselves.
The book is designed to spark reflection and growth for leaders of all levels and backgrounds, seamlessly connecting ideas from the worlds of personal development, leadership, business and organisational thinking. The concept is simple, but it is executed brilliantly, encouraging readers to consider questions such as: How do I spend my time? Where does my power come from? How do I grow my network? How do I make change happen around here? How do I manage my energy? And how do I grow more leaders?
Each section includes thought-provoking exercises, accessible summaries of relevant research, and examples from fellow leaders and executives who have faced similar challenges. It is the kind of book you’ll return to whenever you feel stuck or simply want to refresh your leadership skills.
Why Great Leaders Ask Great Questions: 7 Essential Reflections for Every Aspiring Leader is published by John Murray Business.
