The Contemporary Leader

Strategies and tools to become a better leader by developing an inclusive perspective at work

Instead of seeing inclusiveness as a “trendy concept,” The Contemporary Leader: The Value of Inclusion in Successful Leadership shows its audience how inclusion is an emotion that is achieved only through effective practice abilities. This book delves into what inclusiveness promises us, discusses the relationship between inclusiveness, productivity, and diversity, evaluates concepts that are useful for us to increase our capacity for inclusion, and looks at the obstacles that stand in the way of inclusion (such as unconscious prejudices) to help readers understand how to change and become an inclusive leader.

Written by Dr. Riza Kadilar, President of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC Global), this book explores topics including:

• How inclusion is affected when people feel respected, valued, trusted, and safe, have a sense of belonging, and are able to be their best self.
• Why diversity in aspects like age, appearance, culture, and education can be turned into a benefit for any organisation.
• Why leaders must regard the differences, and not be regardless of the differences, of their team members.

The Contemporary Leader earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of all coaches and mentors, business leaders, HR professionals, and managers who seek to reinvent their perspective surrounding timely interpersonal topics and achieve greater organisational cohesiveness and success as a result.
