The Leader's Suitcase: Setting Yourself Up for Success

by Carolyn Stuart

All leaders carry with them a metaphorical suitcase that is packed with the tools and strategies they will need to successfully navigate the leadership journey. The Leader's Suitcase trilogy uses the idea of three packing cells to logically organise the leader's equipment. This book explores the first packing cell which contains the tools and strategies we need to set ourselves up for success. It is full of fresh ideas and approaches that leaders can deploy to become the leader they aspire to be and the leader others need them to be. How do today's leaders set themselves up for success in a world that is becoming increasingly complex? What tools and strategies does a leader need to have in their metaphorical suitcase, to thrive and not just survive? Today more than ever we need leaders who are equipped to lead using a strengths-based approach, ensuring positive outcomes for themselves and the people they lead. Drawing on strategies from the field of Positive Psychology, intertwined with sound leadership practices, this book takes leaders on the journey from surviving to thriving. It is a playbook for positive deviance, equipping leaders with the strategies and practices for a positive and thriving future.
