They will help executives confront and strengthen their purpose-driven
leadership.”

the survival of today’s businesses. Rise Up examines the qualities of
resilient leaders and shows how each of us can become more effective.” 

 —Hon. Perrin Beatty, CEO, Canadian Chamber of Commerce  

   

 “If there was ever a time for a thoughtful reflection on what
it takes to be a resilient leader committed to engaging the power of a team to
collectively ask ‘how might we…?’ our post-pandemic world is it. Rise Up
is a wise, insightful distillation of years of experience with resilient
leaders, offering practical, grounded examples and guidance. This book will
trigger constructive self-reflection.”

the nineteenth century, George Eliot, said: ‘It is never too late to be what
you might have been.’ Rise Up is a heartfelt invitation to take up that
adventure.”
