What Leaders Are Saying About Leadership Upgrade

Is This Book For You?
This Book Is For Leaders Who Feel Like You Were Given the Title,  But Not The Tools —& Are Ready to Rise.


You didn’t sign up to lead just to put out fires, chase disengaged staff, or question yourself every day.
But no one really showed you how to lead people—just that you were now responsible for them.

Maybe you were promoted because you were a great performer.
Or you stepped up in a time of crisis.
Or you started your own business and leadership came with the territory.

Now you're expected to manage teams, solve problems, and carry the emotional weight of everyone’s performance.
And some days—it feels like you’re just surviving.

👇 If you've ever thought...

  • “Why is this so exhausting?”
  • “Why don’t they just take ownership?”
  • “I don’t want to be a dictator—but I’m tired of being ignored.”
  • “Am I even doing this right?”
Then this book is for you!
 

Leadership Upgrade was written for leaders who’ve never had a roadmap—until now.

It’s not about charisma, perfection, or being in charge.
It’s about learning to lead from who you are, not who you think you have to be.
You’ll walk away with confidence, clarity, and a pathway to become the kind of leader people want to follow—even when they don’t have to.

Hi, I’m Michael Rowell—husband, dad, and leadership coach.

For over 30 years, I’ve had the privilege of leading teams in the trenches—whether in nonprofits, community groups or organisations navigating growth, conflict, and change.

But I didn’t always lead well.

Early in my leadership journey, I thought influence came from titles, pressure, or just trying harder.
I quickly realized that none of that creates trust—or transformation.

I wrote Leadership Upgrade for leaders like me:
People who were handed responsibility, but not the roadmap.
Who want to do it right… but feel like they’re doing it alone.

This book captures everything I’ve learned—and lived—about becoming a leader people want to follow.
It’s not theory. It’s tested. And it’s built to serve you.

Because I believe you don’t need to be perfect. You just need to be willing to upgrade.
