Rise Above Summary

Rise Above: Leadership lessons from the RAF by John Jupp

What can you learn from the RAF to transform your own leadership skills?

The RAF is a well-oiled machine that gets the job done. Much of that is down to its unique leadership style which doesn't see leadership as a senior position but instead something that should be distributed to all. Rise Above unpicks the RAF leadership model to provide a fresh perspective on how to:

  • Deploy the shared leadership style to get the best results for your team.
  • Improve your personal leadership competences to guide your own development and enhance your skills as a leader.
  • Embrace contemporary opportunities such as diversity and inclusion, technology, innovation and adaptability, which have long been a reality of the RAF.

John Jupp combines practical strategies with inspirational real-life examples from over 100 years of the RAF to illustrate how leadership works so you are better equipped to lead effectively.

Whatever your level, you can lead.
