The 10X Leader by Pawan Verma

Good leaders inspire trust, motivate teams, set clear goals, foster innovation, and create a positive culture, driving organizational growth and achieving goals collaboratively.

Pawan Verma is a renowned speaker on leadership and innovation, with an MBA and honorary doctorate. He is a Fellow of the Insurance Institute and a Certified Director and has delivered keynotes at global conferences on VUCA challenges. 

He received the REX Karmaveer Fellowship and Chakra Award for social transformation, actively contributing to Rotary International and research forums. I have read his previous book 'Age of the Imperfect Leader' and it is an amazing book!

So, as we know COVID-19 caused many problems, like sickness, hunger, and job loss. Dr. Pawan Verma suggests leaders need a new approach. He emphasizes being adaptable, fostering innovation, and developing skills to solve today’s challenges effectively.

Leadership is key for success but many books confuse leadership and management and thus traditional teachings on leadership fail. Leadership influences organizational outcomes significantly so automatically new approaches to it are needed.

This book challenges old ideas about leadership and management. It aims to break outdated myths to make room for new insights.

It introduces a fresh approach called AGILE competencies—Alive and Adaptive, Grit, Innovation, Learning, and Excellence—help leaders navigate chaos, inspire hope, and build organizational resilience for future success.

It also highlights important values like love, joy, peace, and hope, which are often ignored at work.

1. Part one clarifies myths about leadership and management, helping you gain a better understanding.
2. Part two addresses disruptions and essential leadership qualities needed today.
3. Part three shows how to become a transformative 10X leader, impacting others' lives.

The book is thoroughly researched. Stories and even lessons are shared which help us get clarity. The language kept is quite lucid to grasp the knowledge from. 

As the various chapters introduce the 10X leader concept, emphasizing leadership as a responsibility to drive positive change, it believe it makes it perfect for aspiring leaders and professionals. Definitely check this book out! Just like his 1st book, I highly recommend his latest book as well.
