What’s new

Leadership Coaching Journal

26 Weeks of Leadership from The Mid-Week Mentor, Book One

Most leadership books get read once and put on a shelf. This one gets written in.

One idea a week, for 26 weeks. Each week brings a short lesson, a quote and one honest question, with room to write what you will do more of, less of, and differently. A team page helps you take it to the people you lead.

New in paperback, now on Amazon.

The books

Servant leadership, written down and made practical

Becoming a Servant Leader, 2nd Edition lays out the principles of unlocking the abilities of others, with new coaching insights before every chapter. The Servant Coach (2025) turns those principles into a repeatable method — the Five T’s of Coaching and a ten-step one-to-one coaching process — and the Guidebook for Leadership Performance Coaches is the companion workbook for running that process yourself.

Let's talk about the people side of your strategy.

A 20-minute intro call is the simplest place to start. No pitch — just a conversation about where your leadership is stuck and whether coaching would help.
