New book Co-Written By A Best-selling Author and a Former Church Minister: The Enabling Manager - Introduces New Model of Leadership

The Enabling Manager is a book written by two of the world’s leading practitioners and thinkers in business coaching, Myles Downey and executive coach Ian Harrison. Downey is also the author of the international bestseller Modern Effective Coaching, while Harrison is a former church minister. They come together as powerful co-writers who present their ideas for successful leadership, providing an antidote to the outdated and ineffective way of managing, to their –align-and-enable model.

Today the world of work and the needs of people, have changed dramatically, where the old models are no longer viable or practical. Today’s leader cannot rely on “command-and-control” and instead, a culture of compliance is required to get the job done.

Align-and-enable is a ‘modern model of leadership’ that is comprised of the values of development and growth, transparency and connection, work that has meaning and purpose, and finally empowerment. This is exactly what Millennials and Gen Z expect and want in the workplace of today.

Myles Downey and Ian Harrison open the book with the following message: “Here’s our promise to you: adopt the approach spelt out in this book and your team will hit their goals more often, get it right more often, learn more and enjoy the time they spend at work. And you’ll open doors for your progression, develop yourself and enjoy a more fulfilling life.”

The Enabling Manager is a book for managers of all levels – to help them motivate and get more from their team while increasing employees' satisfaction and morale.

Andrew Curwen, CEO, XLVets, a business networking company, says about the book: “At the start of this book, the authors make a bold promise... they keep their part of the bargain by sharing with you deep insight, concisely and clearly expressed. I’m left in no doubt that they are setting you up to deliver.”
