Nine Steps To Success

Become a passionate, purposeful, and meaningful leader through identifying who you are, your strengths, and your skills. New York Times bestselling author Stedman Graham's Identity Leadership is a very personal and prescriptive guide that is based on his philosophy that a leader can't lead others until he can first lead himself-the more he works on himself, the more he can give to those around him. To know our purpose in life, we begin with our passions, skills, and talents, and with this book we learn how to channel the best of who we are to achieve success for ourselves and those we lead. In Identity Leadership, Graham examines why self-awareness matters, how leaders lead, the importance of communication, and much more. He then shows the reader how to step into their role as a leader and create their identity leadership plan. Key to the journey is believing in yourself, knowing your competence, continually challenging yourself, and being patient with yourself. Graham uses anecdotes from his own life, as well as discussing successful leaders, to illustrate the importance of identity leadership in each of our lives. Self-leaders can create a roadmap that leads to personal growth, development, and improvement of performance in every area of life. Identity Leadership provides the tools-self-awareness, emotional intelligence, discipline, and more-needed to continually plan and execute learning and development of our talents and skills. These tools enable readers to commit to a personal vision and lead with purpose.

Cyber risk has become a critical business issue, with senior management increasingly under pressure – from customers, regulators and partners – to ensure their organisation can defend against, respond to and recover from cyber attacks. To be resilient against cyber attacks, organisations must do more than just erect digital defences; a significant percentage of successful attacks originate in the physical world or are aided and exacerbated by environmental vulnerabilities. Effective cyber security therefore requires a comprehensive, systematic and robust ISMS (information security management system), with boards, customers and regulators all seeking assurance that information risks have been identified and are being managed. An organisation can achieve a robust ISMS by implementing ISO 27001:2022. This guide will help you: Understand how to implement ISO 27001:2022 in your organisation; Integrate your ISO 27001 ISMS with an ISO 9001 QMS (quality management system) and other management systems; Address the documentation challenges you will face as you create policies, procedures, work instructions and records; and continually improve your ISMS, including internal auditing, testing and management review
