Australian author Mick Spiers recently launched his debut book, “You’re a Leader, Now What?”
The book is about inspiring people into action and building up our next generation of leaders.
“We are facing an engagement crisis in the workplace. I strongly believe that one’s success in business and life has been through the development and support of the people, teams and leaders.” Mick shares.
Spiers spent 15 years in defense aerospace, was part of the Australian Army and has extensive engineering background. Another 15 years was spent in urban mobility wherein his engineering skills, led him into coaching and later on managing regional to global multi-national billion dollar companies.
Recent research has shown that only 16% of people in the world truly love their job and like their boss. It is a tragedy that people are spending up to 1/3 of their lives in jobs and workplaces that do not inspire them and where they struggle to find meaning and purpose.
The book was launched during one of the power meetings of BNI – Business Network International at Summit Ridge Hotel in Tagaytay, where he also gave an informative talk before CEO’s and business owners that being a leader is about inspiring people into action; it is not the same as being the boss or being a manager who tells people what to do. Success as a leader requires mastering how they interact with and relate to other people.
A group of media associates were also invited to witness this milestone moment of Spiers.
Mick stresses, “My ultimate goal is to create a world where people have purpose and meaning in their work; where people feel that their opinions are valued; and ultimately feel that they matter.”
This book will equip readers with practical leadership skills never taught in school and rarely developed in early careers. If you are looking to become a leader people naturally gravitate towards that inspires purpose-driven action in your teams, Spiers lays out a compelling blueprint to follow.
Mick Spiers is also the Founder of the Leadership Project and host of The Leadership Project podcast.
TLP aims to empower leaders with the knowledge and skills they need to create amazing team and amazing workspaces so that people fall back in love with their jobs again.
His lovely wife Sei Therese Spiers is also part of the TLP Team and one of Mick’s inspiration in writing the book which took him around eight months to finish.
