Your Navigator Richard Cartlidge

Do you want to improve performance, engagement and results?Do you recognise that leadership is the key enabler for change?Do you need some support for the journey?Growing and developing great leadership is not a trivial activity. Richard Cartlidge was a navigator in the Royal Air Force. Now he's a navigator for leaders...helping them and their organisations to get from A to B. In Your navigator Richard shares the experiences that forged his own understanding of what makes a difference in leadership - from the leadership qualities that matter through to the leadership principles that make a real difference to individual, team and organisational effectiveness. Richard candidly recounts his adventures from a sub-zero winter in Bosnia, the stifling summer heat of Kosovo, a spring invasion of Afghanistan after 9/11 and leading from the cockpit under intense operational pressure. Sharing his experience of training officers in the British Military and recounting the story of an 18th Century English carpenter Richard distils what it takes for great leadership to happen in any context. The qualities and principles described in this book are applicable to your own leadership journey. Throughout the book, Richard asks inspiring and provocative questions that point you in the right direction towards realising your own brilliant leadership.
