The Essential Reading List For The ‘Whole CEO’

Change Makers: A Woman’s Guide to Stepping Up Without Burning Out by Katy Murray

With Change Makers, leadership coach and D&I consultant, Katy Murray, urges female leaders to step up, take control of their futures, expand their influence and make a difference at work. 

Recognising the manifold economic and social pressures of contemporary life, this book devises an actionable plan for aspirational women and change-makers alike, to achieve our potential, stifle our niggling fears and doubts and develop new habits and thought processes to get us back on track in reaching our ultimate goals. 

Using real-life examples and inspiring interviews with female change-makers, such as Lauren Currie, (Upfront), Naomi Evans (Everyday Racism), Lara Sheldrake (Found+Flourish) and Davinia Tomlinson (Rainchq), Murray delivers motivational tools that can jump-start your energy levels, increase your ability to function under pressure and avoid burnout.  

With a whole host of practical exercises and coaching, Change Makers teaches us to develop small but powerful new daily habits; a world of opportunity to reshape our brains and activate behaviours that better serve our short and long-term objectives and needs, at work and beyond.
