Dillpreit Kaur aims to demystify the fear surrounding change and empower leaders and managers to embrace it as a catalyst for innovation and growth. With a vision of collective responsibility, particularly within the business community, she marks her debut in the publishing world with “The Action Gap: Business Strategies for Co-Prosperity” (published by Partridge Singapore). This book offers a tangible framework for shifting mindsets and practicing ethical self-leadership to bridge the action gap prevalent in organisations. By tapping into leaders’ creative potential, it encourages them to safeguard their priorities and propel meaningful change.
At the heart of this book lies the dignity approach, a seven-step creative problem-solving programme designed to equip professionals across industries with empowering insights. It asserts that solutions to complex challenges reside within individuals and their collaborative efforts. By fostering new perspectives and goal-setting skills, it enables professionals to navigate towards desired outcomes effectively.
Kaur emphasises the book’s relevance for leaders and managers seeking solutions in people and self-management, as well as innovative approaches to sustainability. Drawing from personal experiences in unhealthy work environments, she offers a positive perspective and advocates for transformative leadership to lead more fulfilling lives through the dignity approach.
When asked about her message to readers, Kaur emphasises the inherent value and problem-solving potential within each individual. She calls for inclusivity, active listening, and collaboration, urging a sincere commitment to uncovering biases within organisational structures and cultures.
