About the book
How can leaders promote diversity, equality and inclusion? What does it mean to let go of leadership? And how can learning, feedback and coaching help us become better leaders?
Following Leading Beyond the Ego, this book moves from the principles of Transpersonal Leadership to their practical application. It explores how caring, radical, ethical and authentic leaders can operate beyond their own interests to build strong relationships, create sustainable cultures and enable organisations and people to perform at their best.
Putting Transpersonal Leadership into action
Transpersonal Leadership in Action brings together insights, practical approaches and case studies to explore what Transpersonal Leadership looks like in the real world – and how leaders can apply it within increasingly complex organisations and societies.
The book explores:
- The characteristics of Transpersonal Leaders, including purpose, ethics, adult development and approaches to diversity, equality and inclusion.
- The impact of Transpersonal Leadership within global organisations, digital transformation, organisational change and times of crisis.
- Practical examples and case studies across different contexts, including remote leadership, HR, politics and cultures including India and East Asia.
For leaders who want to put theory into practice
The book is particularly relevant for senior leaders, HR and talent professionals, coaches and those responsible for leadership and organisational development who want to understand how Transpersonal Leadership can be applied in their own organisations and work.

What people are saying
“An inspiring and practical 'how to' guide to leading by example and from the heart in a complex world.”
Mike Attwood
Leadership Development Associate, Florence Nightingale Foundation
“I am absolutely convinced that leaders must embrace transpersonal action to enable thriving in and out of work – we must urgently put our egos in place and be radical, ethical, authentic and emotionally intelligent in as many contexts as possible.”
Prof. Tony Wall
Professor of Transformational Management & Learning
“Transpersonal Leadership in Action is a must-read for those who lead and those who aspire to be leaders. The transpersonal leader is radical, ethical, authentic, emotionally intelligent, and willing to check their ego at the door to think beyond the narrow self.”
