Rather than offering a prescriptive model of leadership, the playbook invites readers to learn through reflection in and on practice. Across its parts, the playbook guides readers through a series of connected activities that culminate in drafting a concise leadership statement. Each section can be used on its own or revisited as leadership roles and contexts shift. Together, the parts are intended to help readers cultivate the habit of reflective, “infrastructural” leadership—work that operates beneath visible actions and decisions and shapes how leadership is enacted day to day.
