We were invited to The Pig at Combe to hear Adrian Brown discuss his new book, “The Power of Clean Leadership: Learning to Lead with Integrity.”
The Power of Clean Leadership is the third instalment in the Stories From The Edge series, following The Power of Organisation and The Power of Management. This book addresses the limitations of traditional management methodologies that have become less effective over time. Authors Michael McMaster and Adrian Brown argue for innovative thinking in leadership to tackle contemporary challenges like climate change, rising energy costs, and shifts in workplace culture.
The book introduces the concept of Clean Leadership, which focuses on clear, authentic communication and integrity in leadership. It emphasizes the importance of genuine engagement and how leaders can significantly impact their teams through their communication style. By fostering a culture of transparency and fresh ideas, Clean Leadership aims to enhance employee loyalty and drive organizational success, ultimately increasing Return on Invested Capital (RoIC).
With insights drawn from over 70 years of combined experience, McMaster and Brown provide actionable advice for organizational leaders. They highlight the need to break down elitist behaviours and ensure that discussions lead to real action, rather than just agreement. Overall, The Power of Clean Leadership offers transformative strategies to help organizations navigate the complexities of modern leadership and unlock their full potential.
