A Fresh Take on Leadership That Actually Inspires
The Curious Leader is the kind of book I wish I had years ago. Jon Bassford cuts through the usual corporate jargon and offers a practical, human-centered approach to leadership that genuinely resonates. What makes this book stand out is how deeply it leans into curiosity as the spark for innovation, team empowerment, and meaningful change.
Bassford doesn’t just talk about leadership theories—he gives real-world examples, exercises, and insights that make it feel like you’re sitting in a strategy session with a trusted mentor. His writing is clear, motivating, and refreshingly honest. I especially appreciated the sections on building trust, embracing ambiguity, and fostering a culture where questions are more powerful than answers.
Whether you’re an executive, team lead, or entrepreneur, this book will shift how you think about leading others (and yourself). It’s not just a read—it’s a mindset reset.
Highly recommend if you’re looking to lead with more heart, impact, and curiosity.
