Constellation: Leadership Reimagined for a Connected Age
What if leadership didn't need a leader?
For decades, leadership studies have circled the same how individuals influence, how authority is shared, how teams perform.
But what if the most effective form of leadership lies not in individuals at all, but in the spaces between them?
Constellation presents the first research into a model of leaderless leadership - where purpose, culture and context, rather than people at the top, become the guiding forces.
This ground-breaking study draws on psychology, organisational science, and fresh empirical evidence to reveal a revolutionary approach to leadership for a world too complex for hierarchies to keep pace.
This is not a reworking of old theories. It is a new map.

A thoughtful and surprisingly relatable read
I picked up Constellation without knowing what to expect, and definitely not because I’m someone who usually reads books about leadership — but this one genuinely surprised me. Danny Wareham explains the idea that leadership doesn’t have to come from one person at the top, but can grow naturally from a group’s shared values, relationships, and culture. It sounds big, but the way it’s written makes it feel really down-to-earth and easy to connect with.
Even without any background in the subject, I found myself nodding along and thinking about my own experiences with people and teams. The writing is clear, honest, and very human — not heavy or technical at all. It’s one of those books that quietly gets under your skin and makes you reflect without even trying.
A genuinely insightful, approachable read that stays with you.
