What if leadership isn’t about fixing the chaos around you, but shifting the behaviour within you?
Most leaders fail, not because they lack qualifications, skills or intelligence, but because of behavioural blind spots they’ve never been taught to recognise.
Shiftcode Leadership provides a practical framework to identify these blind spots and cultivate the behavioural intelligence that drives trust, engagement, collaboration and inspiration.
Read this book to:
- Recognise the behavioural blind spots that quietly undermine your leadership effectiveness
- Cultivate behavioural intelligence that transforms reactive patterns into intentional leadership
- Build the four pillars every modern workplace need: trust, engagement, collaboration and inspiration
- Create thriving team cultures through conscious behavioural shifts
- Accelerate your leadership excellence

Review :
‘If leadership is measured in moments, this book shows you how to make those moments matter. The Shiftcode Model is both simple and profound, giving leaders a reliable compass for uncertain times. Preetie Boler’s insights will help you shift from reactivity to intentionality with lasting impact.’
— Emeritus Professor Gary Martin FAIM, CEO, Australian Institute of Management Western Australia
‘What I love about this book is that it doesn’t just talk about leadership – it makes you reflect on your own behaviours and gives you practical steps to shift them. The practices have already helped me strengthen my effectiveness as a leader.’
— John Pirie, Head of FM, Western Australia and Resources, Programmed by Persol
‘One of the most valuable takeaways for me was reframing leadership from “control” to “influence.” This simple yet powerful shift creates more flexibility and resilience in how leaders navigate complex situations. The book doesn’t just challenge old paradigms – it equips leaders with the mindset and tools to thrive in today’s dynamic workplace.’
