A short but important message for you. The Death of Leadership site is getting so much traffic, from people who want to watch the videos, or folks who want download the Death of Leadership report, that the site is dying under the weight of traffic. Our server can’t take it much longer.

So I’m going to make a couple of changes. (I’ll be honest, it’s costing me a lot in bandwidth to keep these videos here for you.)

First, you can now download some of the videos. I plan to make all the videos downloadable as soon as I can. (That will reduce some of the traffic.)

But for those of you waiting for the big announcement, read on

I’m going to launch a new site very soon, with great new videos, recorded in our new studio. These are going to be really valuable for you, all content and never before released or seen anywhere.

These will be previews for our Next Big Thing. But if you’re on our VIP Priority list you don’t have to do anything. You’ll hear about them first as always, a few hours before the general public.

Don’t worry, the Death of Leadership videos will stay here. At least until the server melts. So you can still watch the videos.

But I suggest you download the ones you want and the Death of Leadership Report while you can.

Thanks for your support over the last few weeks. We’ve enjoyed making these videos for you.

Stay connected.
Steven Sonsino

P.S. Remember to download the videos you want and download the Death of Leadership report. Before our server police close this site down.

‘The Death of Leadership’ is finally here. Please
download and read this 63-page report, and
tell us what you think. Have we got it right?

And do our suggestions for what you
should do next make sense for you?

The story is that we’re angry. We’re angry that
your leadership has been put under such pressure.

And we don’t blame you if you feel like giving up
from time to time. (It would be too easy to just be
a dictator wouldn’t it?)

But it would be a mistake to give up on leadership.

You know the old saying ‘if you can’t beat them join them’? Well, that would be a mistake in your case. Because the situation you’re in isn’t your fault. And the solution is totally within your grasp.

In a few short steps you can overcome the resistance you’re experiencing. Then you can begin to build widespread support for what you want to achieve.

We know you have high aspirations for the future. For your business, your team and - yes - for yourself, too. And we want to help you achieve those ambitions.

Chris was brilliant, though, calm and resourceful. And together Jackie and he yelled for help and got some folks to open the boot, or trunk, so they could get out. They crawled out of the somewhat crushed car, miraculously without a single scratch on them. Just as the water started to seep in seriously, through the air hoses and the engine block.

I am very grateful to the villagers who helped Jackie and Chris out of the car and to the emergency services who were on the scene so fast. Thank you. And to Renault, who made our family car, another big thank you. Although it was written off as far as our insurance company is concerned the important thing is that the car survived the crash. And thanks to it surviving, Jackie and Chris survived, too.

A reminder for me that I work to live, not live to work.

So this is not the video I intended to give you today. I haven’t had time to prepare that for the web. Instead you’re getting a full keynote speech I gave in Abu Dhabi a short while ago. It got good reviews from the managers present, so I hope it makes up for the interruption to the Death of Leadership material.

Take care.
Steven
