Thanks to NetGalley for the Audio ARC!

This was a quick and easy non-fiction read with some great points and enjoyable research. While it didn't feel groundbreaking, it was certainly a great reminder on how we can all work together to achieve greater things, and how easy it can be to slip into our comfortable "silos" and fail to stretch important boundaries.

Charming, well narrated, interesting, and worth the read.

Justis Cleveland and Daniel Student's ”Don't Lead Alone” is a refreshing take on leadership. It's presented as a practical guide to building effective partnerships. Their clear and engaging narration brings the concepts to life, making it easy to understand and apply.

The two authors focus their work on systems thinking, networking, and movement-building provides a comprehensive framework for leaders seeking to amplify their impact. The real-world examples and actionable exercises make the book even more valuable. Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting out, ”Don't Lead Alone is a good recommendation for anyone looking to create lasting change in leadership roles.

#DontLeadAlone #NetGalley #LifeLongLearning

Don't Lead Alone offers a powerful framework for leaders aiming to amplify their impact through strategic collaboration. Cleveland Justis and Daniel Student lay out a clear roadmap in three sections: Think Like a System, Act Like a Network, and Lead Like a Movement. Each section is packed with practical advice and exercises for building partnerships that break out of traditional silos to tackle complex, cross-sector challenges.

What I found especially useful are the actionable steps and real-world examples that make the ideas accessible and applicable. I’m looking forward to using these strategies with my team to create meaningful connections and drive broader change together.

I found a lot of the information in this audiobook to be a lot of things I would consider common knowledge. Saying that, I don’t think that means it’s not important! I just appreciate that at the point I am in my career, a lot of the processes of leading has become common knowledge to me. I think many people who are just starting out and want to get into leadership could get some great insight after listening to this audiobook.
