How to be a credible leader
Discover what it takes to be a leader people will follow and find out what’s stopping you being believed by those you lead.
Credibility is what happens when effective communication meets true accountability
Many leaders think they are doing everything right. And yet, they are running an ineffective team or organization. We see this in retention numbers, profitability, innovation, productivity and broader employee engagement scores. If a leader wants to succeed, they have to look at their behaviours, their communication style and their ability to build relationships with those they want to lead.

Nobody Believes You - How to Become a Leader People Will Follow
The book will explore how we as individuals build and undermine ourselves on a daily basis in the workplace (often as an unintended consequence) and what we all can do to become more credible so that others will believe and follow us.
Based on four years of research, the book delves into the eight practices of credibility including empathy, trust, and capability.
Each chapter will share insights that already exists about emotions, behaviours, leadership, and remote work to explore what is required to lead and manage teams well in a post pandemic world.
You will learn why the problem is closer to home and practical skills and strategies to make a difference to your relationships at work.
Because if nobody believes you, they won’t follow you.

The full research report is now available to download to discover the findings and understand the practices that make a leader ‘credible.’
