Penny de Villiers
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
How the Smartest Leaders Are Redesigning Work for Energy, Trust, and Well-Being
We’re not in a leadership crisis, we’re in a design crisis. The systems we inherited weren’t built for human sustainability. In a world of constant disruption, that’s not just outdated - it’s a risk. In this bold, practical guide, strategist and TEDx speaker Penny de Villiers reframes leadership as a redesign challenge and gives you the tools to act.
Backed by research, global case studies, and the Strategic Pioneer Toolkit, featuring ready-to-use surveys, conversation guides, and diagnostics, this book helps you:
• Replace burnout culture with capacity-building systems
• Lead with rhythm, clarity, and psychological safety
• Measure what matters - energy, trust, and belonging
• Build regenerative systems that scale with humans in mind
Explore 18 Strategic Shifts to move from reaction to redesign.
If you’ve sensed that work is overdue for reinvention, this book offers the clarity, tools, and design shifts to lead forward, even when the path is still unfolding.
The future of work isn’t arriving.
It’s being pioneered by leaders like you.
