In today’s fast-paced, high-stakes environments, strong systems matter - but they’re not enough. Sustainable performance is driven by one factor above all: the quality and distribution of leadership throughout the team and organisation. Not just from the top, but shared across your entire team or organisation. That’s Performance Leadership.
In Amplify, Performance strategist and author of Simplify, Richard Young presents a clear, research-backed framework for individual leaders seeking to drive lasting impact. Drawing on Richard’s insights from 11 Olympic cycles and work across 50 sports and industries in seven countries, this book distils what separates high-performing teams and systems from the rest - and how to apply those principles in any organisation.
You’ll learn how to:
- Lead with clarity and intent in moments that matter
- Align roles and behaviours to strengthen team performance and cohesion
- Build anti-fragile environments that thrive in uncertainty
- Foster performance well-being that lifts energy and results
- Avoid the silent traps that erode momentum and culture
Whether you’re leading a team, a business unit, or an entire organisation, Amplify provides a practical, actionable playbook for unlocking your leadership potential and amplifying the performance of those around you.
Because at the heart of every high-performing system is leadership that performs.
