How To Be A World Class Leader: Using Science To Become One of The Top Executives in the World

By Patrick Hough

You'll Hate This Book (If You're Already a Leader)

This isn't a typical business book. Most follow an unwritten rule-don't antagonize the reader. This one breaks that rule - in spades. You've heard about the brutal training and selection process for special forces units like the SAS or Navy SEALs? Most don't make it. This is a similar process, but for leaders. It's intellectually challenging. Readers-leaders and aspiring leaders alike-will face scenarios that challenge their worldview. Every part of their decision-making will be tested. Every habit will be exposed.

The process is raw and unforgiving. It strips away the layers and shows you what's underneath. It will expose your blind spots, bad habits, and the excuses you've relied on. Whether you're leading a company or just starting out, it speaks directly to you. And it doesn't hold back-so be ready to be called out.

Some will move through it easily-the top 10%. They've built confidence without arrogance. They stay open to new ideas. They don't get defensive when challenged, and they handle pressure with calm precision. At the other end, some believe they already know it all. They become defensive the instant things get tough. They reject anything that doesn't fit their narrow view. They'll take themselves out of the running early.

It's the middle 80% who will get the most from this book. They may still cling to outdated beliefs about themselves and their leadership. They may resist change and prefer comfort over challenge. But deep down, they know they should be making changes. They're not closed off-they're just stuck.

If they stay the course, they'll walk away with a new perspective on leadership-and a new set of tools they can use. Tools for making better decisions. For seeing clearly under pressure. For leading with precision and purpose. They'll step into the top tier. They'll become true, world-class leaders-built for moments that demand the most.
