Drawing from her NIHSS-funded doctoral research (funded by the National Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences), Dr Louw’s book addresses three key areas:

• Creating organisational environments that attract and retain intellectual talent
• Developing strong leader-follower relationships to motivate expert workers
• Building the values and skills that enhance collaboration with expert followers.

The book highlights the benefits of this approach, including better staff retention, enhanced knowledge transfer, and a more fulfilling work environment. It equips anyone leading expert followers or aspiring to do so, including leadership students.

Dr Louw, a respected life and business coach with over 20 years of experience, draws on her authority in interpersonal leadership communication. She collaborated with Cornerstone Institute to publish this book based on her extensive research.

The event will feature a discussion between Dr Louw and Thulani Dube, Head of Innovation and Advancement at Cornerstone Institute. They will delve into her research, highlight key takeaways from the book, and discuss strategies for leaders to retain top talent and build productive teams. Attendees can purchase the book at a discounted rate during the event, and there will be a prize draw for free copies. Dr Louw will also do a brief reading and be available for questions and book signing.
