Everyone is capable of accomplishing extraordinary things.
If you share this belief, then this book was written for you.
In business and in life, handing over the reins to others is inevitable. Everyone
will eventually leave their team, retire from being the CEO, or see their kids
leave home and lead their own lives. Leading from the Jumpseat enables us to
embrace this inevitability. Leading from the Jumpseat is a metaphor for how we
can choose to lead. It's about the journey we take so we can hand over control
to others, who are then equipped to continue forward.
Peter Docker, co-author of Find Your Why and formerly a founding Igniter at
Simon Sinek Inc., delivers the message that leadership is about lifting people
up and giving them the space they need so that, when the time is right, they
can take the lead.
Drawing on his 25-year career in the Royal Air Force, and over 14 years spent
partnering with businesses around the world, Peter's goal is to inspire others to
Lead from the Jumpseat. Jumpseat Leadership is a way of interacting with
people that will enhance performance in any given situation — during normal
business, times of crisis, and life in general. Becoming a Jumpseat Leader
takes practice and this book is your practical guide to handing over control.
