“Become a Better Human Being”
Roger has laid out a roadmap on how to become more authentic, how to lead from a deep sense of purpose, one that goes beyond mere transactions and engages others at their very core. Study 5DL and not only learn how to lead, but learn how to become a better human being!

“IN AN ‘EVERYONE A CHANGEMAKER’ WORLD, leadership must be profoundly different”
With the world fast tipping away from millennia where the game was efficiency in repetition to its opposite, an “everyone a changemaker” world where change begets and accelerates change, everyone must be a co-leader and leadership must be profoundly different. Roger Evans, who has counselled great and weak leaders for decades, has mapped what this new leadership is. That is why this new book is so important.

“The new corporate paradigm requires a powerful force”

The Building Blocks Future Leadership
‘More of the same’ is not enough. The leadership competencies that got us here won’t create the future that employees, customers and shareholders demand – a future that’s coming whether we are ready or not. Many leaders know intuitively that ‘more of the same’ is not enough.
5DL is the answer. Go beyond ‘more of the same’ and build tomorrow’s leadership mindset
