WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

Eddie Watkin understands how great leadership can transform situations and create partnerships that make a real difference. He combines passion with experience and I know this book will help many leaders, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike, to realise their full potential.

― Tim Costello, Former Chief Executive, World Vision Australia

A technically brilliant piece of work demonstrating Watkin’s practical and inspirational life teachings. This book is a must for every trainer, facilitator and participant in their journey toward strong leadership.

― Dr Jackie Huggins AM FAHA

As an Aboriginal man it has taken a number of years for me to grow in my understanding of and appreciation for leadership, but I have discovered that leadership is an essential ingredient for life - whether it be for a corporate, a community or a culture. LeadershipFIT seeks to not only highlight this truth but also help you to exercise it. Eddie has given not only theoretical but very practical ways to grow in your leadership and for that reason I heartily endorse this book.

― Reverend Billy Williams

LeadershipFIT is a crystallisation in print of all that Eddie has put in to inspire Australian leaders. It will benefit and inspire leaders not only in Australia, but also non-resident leaders all over the world.

― Cynthia Chan, Entrepreneur, Real Estate Consultant (Singapore)

There is no one I can recommend more highly than Eddie Watkin with experience and passion in supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ future leadership potential. The LeadershipFIT key message that “Leadership is a relationship between people” is the spirit needed to reach our vision of a just, equitable and reconciled nation.

― Leah Armstrong, Chief Executive Officer, Reconciliation Australia (2010-2014)

I have been a “leader” in the education sector for thirty seven years, and have always been comfortable with the statement, “It’s lonely at the top”. Eddie Watkin’s “LeadershipFIT – For Everyday Living” has opened for me a fresh perspective on what leadership really is. I have enjoyed applying the “Fit Workout Plans” at the conclusion of each Chapter, not only as a stimulus for reflection about my past leadership, but also as a motivation for connection and action for leadership now, and in the future. This is a fresh and innovative treatise which I highly recommend for all who are interested in knowing the why, how and what of leadership.

― Daryl Hanly BA, B.Ed., (UQ) MEd (QUT), MEd (ACU) ATCL, FACEL. Principal, St Joseph’s Nudgee College (2002-2014)

This book is practical and aims to address many of the daily challenges in leadership. It reinforces some of the things that lived leadership experience has shown to be true, and offers some helpful approaches to deal with these challenges. The ambition of the book is to really assist people to be better leaders, and to help them to be accountable and effective across many cultural contexts; contexts that could be very complex, yet the book helps them to be very accessible. Next generation leaders will benefit immensely by applying the principles of this book.

― Tanya Hosch, Former Joint Campaign Director, Recognise

From childhood I yearned to have a tangible experience of the leadership that was more than words, position or an idea. It was life changing to see integrity, honour and respect being lived, role-modelled by Eddie Watkin; I found hope and connectedness in what I learned. There is much talk about leadership, what it looks like, how it sounds, but nothing of the heart, character and lifestyle of a leader. I am excited knowing that this book, an essential tool for living the life of leadership, is accessible to those searching for equipping to grow into and embrace their destiny.

― Faith Gray, Founder, Courageous Hope

“LeadershipFIT For Everyday Living is not just a book ― it’s a resource that you can use day in and day out, to support you to be more effective in living out your best leadership life.”
