Heroes, Monsters,
& Kings
Leadership Lessons for Times of Chaos from Ancient Archetypes, Cultures, and Stories.
Have you ever had caught yourself thinking, ‘someone better take the lead here right now or this is going down fast’? Well, the bad news is that if you thought just that, you are very much the one that should be taking the lead.
Leadership is a key quality and necessary skill that we all use, from working, playing, or raising children. It is an innate raw talent that can be amplified and sharpened into a profound strength when we add knowledge and experience. In an age where we prefer to forget the past, or ignore it, and am besotted with the future, with the ‘new’ it is ironically the stories, lessons, and concepts from our distance past that we most need to lead in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world. |
A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself. |
The answer lies in the structures and value systems of monasteries, the conflict resolution processes of native American tribes, the ancient archetypes that form the basis of our psyches, legends of ancient heroes facing terrible monsters, and the ideas about the universe from the first philosopher.

“Pierre du Plessis is most probably one of the best speakers I have encountered, anywhere in the world. I have been lucky enough to see the likes of Nir Eyal, Eric Qualman, the great Tony Dungy, even Bill Clinton, but do I do anything different after listening to them? Nope. I do after Pierre’s talks.”
