Host by Mark McKergow and Helen Bailey is published by Solutions Books and is priced at £11.99
Strong relationships are the key to successful leadership, and in such a fast paced, technology driven society, leaders appear to be stepping back, not forward. ‘Host: Six new roles of engagement for teams, organizations, commu- nities, movements’ by Mark McKergow and Helen Bailey is an exciting and innovative book that reveals a new way to think about business leader- ship from the perspective of being a ‘host’.
‘Host’ reveals why Host Lead- ership is set to become one of the most pioneering concepts in 21st century management. The traditional ‘stand and deliver’ approach to leadership falls down when it comes to engagement. Understanding how to really engage with peo- ple is the ultimate backbone of success. We all now how to be hosts; now is the time to put these skills into practice.
‘Host: Six new roles of engage- ment for teams, organizations, communities, movements’ (£11.99, Solutions Books, London) is available now. For more information visit www.

It is becoming increasingly important that you know how to present yourself confidently on screen.
Lottie takes you through her 7 steps to help you present the power of YOU. Covering why presenting on camera is dif- ferent from doing it live, how to do it - from learning how to use your body, your voice, your brain, to getting creative and enjoy it!
