Nan S. Russell has shared her workplace insights and practical wisdom with a wide variety of people, from coal miners and Navy engineers to college students and senior leaders at nonprofits and Fortune 100 corporations, igniting passions, crystallizing thinking, and changing results. She's a national speaker, consultant, and radio host, the award-winning author of Hitting Your Stride, a blogger for PsychologyToday.com, and the job-loss recovery expert for Job-Hunt.org. Her column, "Winning at Working," can be found in more than 90 publications. Nan has a B.A. from Stanford University and an M.A. from the University of Michigan. She lives with her husband in northwestern Montana.

How people work, communicate, collaborate, and manage responsibilities has changed. Knowing how to build influence and lead others without title or authority, no matter what your role, is now a workplace necessity.

No one needs to appoint you, promote you, or nominate you. You decide. It’s not rank that will get you results; its the actions.

In The Titleless Leader, you will discover uncommon behaviors that will enable you to:

  • Operate with trust in an era of distrust and growing cynicism
  • Activate your titleless leadership practice by using “what-does-it-look-like?” approaches and “how-does-it happen?” tips, exercises, and insights
  • Engage yourself and others using the cornerstones of self-alignment, soul-courage, possibility seeds, and winning philosophies

    Using the revolutionary tactics laid out in The Titleless Leader, you’ll turbocharge your career and discover how to get things done…even without a title.
