Unlikely Leaders offers a ground breaking and deeply relevant perspective on leadership.

Cathy Burke’s work over two decades with The Hunger Project has given her intimate access to grassroots leaders who are ending hunger in their villages. Though they may be impoverished and non-literate, these women and men are at the forefront of courageous and effective leadership.

With all the reasons why it’s not possible, the poorest of the poor are redefining what is possible. Their actions are changing the world. Learning from them can change ours too.

In this book you will:

• Discover the Nine Steps of Transformative Leadership
• Explore why mindset is key, and how entrenched beliefs can be transformed
• Learn how to move from ‘I can’t’ to ‘I can’ to ‘We can’
• Challenge your assumptions about what’s limiting you
• Engage with our world in an empowering new way
