In leadership, realistic and infectious optimism has emerged as the essential and defining trait of globally successful leaders in the 2020s.

It is what people most value in their leaders. Optimism fuels bold strategy, unlocks innovation, and anchors resilience in the face of adversity. It empowers successful change and transformation, the kind that inspires people to act with purpose. Optimism fosters trust, hope, and a clear vision in uncertain times.

 And always remember: The leader looks like the person in your mirror.

This is an extract from the preface of the updated Optimism: The How and Why” by Victor Perton.
