Welcome to my wise leaders books and self directed online courses. They are all designed to help you to become the wise leader you want to be.

Between August 2020 and August 2023 my goal is to publish or republish the 12 books in the series.

View the full list at the bottom of this page.

Heart-Leadership: Become the wise leader you want to be, and Changing What's Normal are the two books published so far.

Heart-Leadership is an invitation to become the wise leader you want to be. It's a guide and a tool kit to help you to become in your own best way.

Ian Berry has produced an important and ground-breaking work which is a crucial addition to our knowledge of leadership and how better leadership can improve all our communities.

If you are leading or aspiring to lead at any level Ian's book provides a framework, many insights and a toolkit for you to move effectively, genuinely and transparently forward to transform your own leadership and inspire those around you. 

This is a transformational work and I cannot recommend it highly enough for leaders wishing to shape a better future.

In the short conversation (42 minutes) with Geoff McDonald I explore the key aspects of Heart-Leadership

In Changing What's Normal I introduced the concept of Sparkenation - a spark that ignites passion that leads to action that changes what's normal.

The book contains 58 sparkenations.

Changing What's Normal is the book I always wanted to write. It's about all change being personal first, relationship change second and organisational change a distant third.

More about Changing What's Normal and more testimonials from readers here.

I had the privilege of experiencing your address to delegates at an Australian Institute of Office Professionals conference in Adelaide in 2013. I also purchased your book, ‘Changing What’s Normal’ - you kindly signed it for me and encouraged me to continue being the difference I want to see. 

I have since re-read your book many times and ‘done my work’ by acting upon your sparkenations. I have tried to live and promote the philosophy of enlightened self-interest, and can honestly say you have had a profound impact on both my professional and private life.
