He says: “Change used to happen as a breeze. Now, it feels like a category-five typhoon. But it’s never been easier to miss the upside of disruption. Leaders should not waste one of the biggest reframing moments of their lifetimes because the future isn’t just about tech and trends. It’s about mindsets and choices, too. My #1 call to action is, "We always overestimate the risk of trying something new and underestimate the risk of standing still. When volatility is high, not taking a risk is a risk."

1. BOLD: Build a 10x mindset where you can take bold leaps into the future.
2. BRAVE: Build a challenge culture where it's safe to speak up and bring your best self to work.
3. BEYOND: Navigate the rapid pace of change, unlock your leadership purpose and BE the change.
The 3D Leader will equip you with a practical set of actions for you to completely reimagine how you lead. After reading the book, you will have the know-how and tools to lead faster, smarter and better.
