A Handbook to create more Disciplined and Impactful Leaders ... coming Q1 2026

I’m thrilled to share the reason for my recent silence on LinkedIn: over the past four months I’ve been finalising the manuscript for my new book to be published by Wiley early next year.

The title won’t surprise anyone who knows me or my work: Discipline Beats Vision. It reflects the number one pillar of my Impactful Leadership Framework — Being a Disciplined Leader.

The central argument is simple: Vision will inspire your team — but discipline will get you there.

Vision is critically important, and powerful. It fuels your drive, attracts great people to join you on the journey, and inspires investors. But vision without discipline is like having a destination without a roadmap — inspiring, but powerless.

What separates leaders who scale from those who don’t, isn’t a bigger vision. It’s disciplined leadership — the deliberate, consistent behaviours that turn vision into results.

That’s the foundation of my new book: Discipline Beats Vision: How to Be the Leader Your Company Needs – Starting Monday.

While written with CEOs in mind, the principles apply just as powerfully to any leader who wants to develop and sharpen their leadership behaviours to create outstanding teams, organisations and consequently, businesses. This book is not theory — it’s practical, real-world leadership guidance designed to deliver immediate impact.

The structure follows the real journey of a being an impactful leader of your business:

1. Translate Your Life Journey into Your Leadership Journey — connect who you are and your life experiences with how you lead.

2. Build Trust and Accountability — the foundation of disciplined teams.

3. From Posters to Practice — be deliberate in the culture you create in your business.

4. Develop Your Team — because your company’s growth is limited by your team’s growth.

5. Communicate with Impact — finetune your communication style to be impactful in all situations.

6. Lead Internationally — you will never achieve your aspirational valuation if you are only in one country (unless it is the US, India or China). You must be able to operate and drive multi-country operations.

7. Lead Your Board — leverage them and lead them; don’t let them lead you.

8. Build Resilience and Lead in Crisis — stay grounded and in control when it matters most.

9. Build Your Support Team — leadership is not a solo sport; you need a support team. Know who they are and how to find them.

Each chapter ends with “Monday Ready” — a practical challenge designed to help you turn insight into disciplined action, starting the next week.

More to come!
