“Become” – A New Leadership Book Becomes A Bestseller Within A Few Hours Of Launch On Amazon


Become: The 5 Critical Conversational Practices that Shift ‘Who You Be’ as a Leader, a new leadership book authored by Pune based bestselling author Sameer Dua was officially released on Amazon on the 25th of December 2017. By 6.30pm, “Become” was already:

#1 Amazon Hot New Release in Business Communication
#1 Amazon Hot New Release in Economics
#1 Amazon Movers and Shakers
#Bestseller Badge by Amazon within the first 6 hours of being released
#33 Overall Kindle Rank 

This is an incredible performance for any book. Sameer Dua, author of the bestselling book “Declaring Breakdowns”, and now “Become” stated:“The conversational practices in Become are non-discretionary. Leaders need to either learn to have these conversations, or then pay a price for not having these conversations, which is, not delivering results that matter.” Sameer further adds: Become is an invitation to choose a powerful posture in your leadership and life. You don't ‘become’ by knowing more. You ‘become’ by shifting your leadership practices, and with respect to leadership, by shifting and creating new conversational practices.” 

The book has extremely valuable contributions from Bob Dunham, Founder, Institute for Generative Leadership, USA.

In addition. Umang Bedi, MD (India and South Asia) of Facebook and Sheeja Shaju, Somatic Leader and Coach at Institute for Generative Leadership, India have also contributed to this book. 

The foreword for “Become” has been written by Marshall Goldsmith, the #1 Executive Coach and #1 Business Thinker in the world. This is what Marshall Goldsmith has to say about Become in his foreword: “This is Powerful stuff. I suggest you try it for the sake of your colleagues, family, friends, and yourself”.
