W. Harrod: A well formed and important text for leaders on the importance of language and the opportunity it presents. Not easy fixes but real examples that can be used immediately. Every leader at any level should consider this carefully.

Tim Ward: Everyone one of us leads in some or many parts of life. So, knowing how our language affects people we lead and affects us as we follow others can make a significant difference in how we live our lives!
If you have a family or own a business, you'll most likely gain insight that will benefit you and serve you the rest of your life!

chron: Goes one layer deeper than Turn the Ship Around. There would hardly be anyone better to explain and implement leadership anywhere. Psychology, organisation, work balance... It covers everything through one prism, language.

floridabluejayfloridabluejay: When I was young, I could never put my finger on what exactly made a good leader. Personality, knowledge, trust worthiness? A combination of all of these? Maybe. So how do you become a better leader? Learn more, work to improve your personality, and convince people to trust you? There's an easier way and all you have to do is change what you say.
In Leadership Is Language, David makes it so simple to go from using what he calls the Industrial Age playbook where bosses used controlling, coercive language to get their people to comply (not think) and continue work for as long as they deemed necessary, to using the New Playbook for Leaders.
In the New Playbook, he walks us through the 6 plays: Control the Clock, Collaborate, Commit, Complete, Improve, and Connect. Every play is set up with "say this not that" to help you change the words you use and replace them with language that helps people speak up when they see something, when they think differently than the leader, and how to share anonymously in groups.
I can only imagine David was considering the reader as he structured the layout of Leadership is Language, it's so user friendly!! He has so many real life examples of...

James H: I really enjoyed the author's original book "Turn the ship around" so thought I'd give this a read. Unfortunately, this book drifts away from the story-driven practical content of his original book, and moves into standard leadership babble. It squeezes leadership advice into a sporting "play book" metaphor with the typical contorted set of action verbs all starting with the same letter. For me, this dilutes and damages the content and makes it no different to all the other generic leadership books out there. I struggled to plough through and finish it.
