Leadership International encourages leaders to develop workplace cultures with distinct characteristics: inspired people who produce inspired results. We’re delighted to showcase Phil Jones’ experience in transforming culture to release energy into his workers and the business. Here’s the story, recounted by Adam Gale in Management Today. Phil Jones battled hierarchy and inertia when he took over Brother UK five years ago. Now it's an industry-leading employer. Here's how he

While firms are just waking up to tackling the "most depressing day", Leadership International founder Dr Chan Abraham made sure his staff enjoyed "Glorious Monday" for many years. Take your pick of one of two Mondays in January which the media bill as the most depressing day of the year for workers. Meanwhile the UK's Chartered Management Institute present survey findings that managers plan to give "sweet treats" to boost morale on "Blue Monday". Apparently a combination of

The New Book of Your Year, with 12 Chapters and 365 Pages, now opens up before you. What will you write and how will your story unfold? The Year That Has Just Passed may have been great, terrible, or some shade between these two extremes. However, you need to remember that your past does not determine your future - unless you are determined to let it do so. Ancient Wisdom has declared, “Do not call to mind the former things,or ponder things of the past." (Book of Isaiah 43:

We all struggle with adverse circumstances, and leaders more so. Indeed, if your vision and goal are to change the world for the better, to live a life of service, self-sacrifice and great endeavour, be certain that there will be those who will criticise, defame, unjustly accuse, seek to draw the worst inferences from your actions, deceive, lie, cheat, make derogatory statements, envy your success, attack, hate, and to harbour and act with malign and malevolent intent. This i

In business and in life we need to have a sense of purpose, direction and understanding of life's most essential questions. One of those is, "Why are we here?" Watch Dr Chan Abraham here as he inspires audiences to challenge themselves and others to ask the vital question about why we are here and how we can transform our world for the better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnMD0EGdCpw #strategicplanning #hope #managersleaders #highperformingbusiness #faithintheworkplace #in

One of the most controversial subjects in UK housing is whether high-rise homes are a success or a failure. Watch Dr Chan Abraham's assessment at Downing College, Cambridge, as part of Relational Thinking Week 2017 here. Dr Abraham gives a brief introduction to social housing, particularly high-rise homes, in the UK, challenges the prejudices of history and seeks to help his audience arrive at a reasoned understanding of this difficult and challenging issue.

One of the greatest challengers we all face is failure. This article helps us see how one man dealt with this - and came through to success. In 1991, I—along with my business partner—suffered a financial meltdown. We had built a successful publishing company, but our growth outstripped our working capital. We simply ran out of cash. For a while, our distributor funded us in the form of cash advances on our sales. But eventually, their parent company wanted those advances bac

This new Year of Moving Forward presents a great opportunity to pursue success by recognising the value of differences. We think that this article on "Hiring Diversity Makes You Smarter - How Your Organisation Can Thrive by Gathering a Team of Rivals" explains it really well. “How could we have been so stupid?” The question was posed by none other than John F. Kennedy in the aftermath of the 1961 Bay of Pigs fiasco, the failed invasion of Cuba by CIA-backed Cuban exiles. The

In Leadership International we have been helping leaders and those they lead to achieve greater effectiveness in business and non-profit organisations over many years. At the same time, they have developed success in their personal and private lives. One of the keys at the heart of this is the quality of our inner life, where we have emphasised "great attitude", with gratitude as a high-grade energiser. The science behind the power of gratitude is summarised in this helpful

In the wake of global anxiety, fuelled by the well-known concerns portrayed unceasingly by media of all types, leaders, above all others, are required to rise and show that we can change the world right where we are. Ordinary people are able to extraordinary things. This has been evidenced repeatedly - in disaster scenarios as well as in the daily efforts of individuals in their communities and neighbourhoods. "The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its
