Positive Communication for Leaders provides a practical model of positive communication that can immediately inspire unity and influence change in organisations. Drawing on decades of research in the fields of communication and leadership, as well as combined experience in consulting and training leaders across many professions, Julien C. Mirivel and Alex Lyon offer concrete practices and strategies to achieve what often feels impossible: to lead effectively, create community, and inspire positive change.

Each chapter centres around a core skill that leaders must master. With practical examples, stories from practitioners, and meaningful exercises, leaders will learn to apply these skills one-on-one, in group contexts, and across the organisation. The book delves into the essentials of relationship-building, emphasising the significant impact of positive relationships, and provides a blueprint for leading positively and effectively. The numerous practical examples offered throughout the chapters will help both novice and experienced leaders navigate challenging conversations with confidence.

The ability to create and maintain positive relationships is a crucial aspect of leadership in any profession, both historically and today, and has become a necessity for current leaders. This book demonstrates how to make time and space for quality connections and how to build better relationships. It is a must-have resource for new and experienced leaders alike.
