    Leadership is learned wherever we go and keeping an open heart and mind will grow your leadership. One of the special people for me in leadership development is New Zealand's pre eminent Poet Sam Hunt. Sam is available for Corporate, Industry and Private events. Sam has entrusted me to help him to secure appropriate places to perform so feel free to contact me if you'd like to think about getting Sam along to your place.

    You can connect with me also on the Stephen Drain Leadership Facebook page.

    This blog is rated in Top 50 Up and Coming Leadership Blogs by Leading by Example. We are also listed as one of the top 25 management & leadership blogs of 2011 by Best Colleges. Other blogs in the top 25 include HBR, Linked2Leadership and John Maxwell. Thanks to you my reader. I'll keep going!

  • The quick guide to the site

    Not new but still true: A simple truth about a blog. Keep writing and you keep reading. Stop and you stop visiting. Hey that's not rocket science, just something that's obvious from the stats and it encourages me to keep going, especially as it's something a very much enjoy!

    Click on the photo for stuff about me. To go to the Homepage at any time click the header. The "Latest Stuff" tab will take you to a running index of entries. My other online activity, links including to my other blogs are below.

    The tab above "AUT Centre for Innovative Leadership on Stephen's Blog" has links and information about the Centre I founded at AUT Universtiy. Some of those links are also permanently at the bottom left (scroll down) under "Pages on this site" including private pages for course participants.

    I hope you enjoy visiting here. All feedback gratefully received.
    Stephen
