Queering the Way — Coming June 4th
What if your queerness is the most important leadership asset you have?
Queering the Way: Navigating Leadership Ethics from the Margins is a book about what becomes possible when queer and trans leaders stop leading despite their identity and start leading from it.
It is not a book for everyone. If you are looking for a new leadership system to increase your impact, or a set of strategies to implement next quarter, this is not that book — and I would rather tell you now than disappoint you later.
If, however, you are a thoughtful, curious person who has been seriously contemplating what it means to lead with integrity in a world whose default social order was not built to include you — if you are done compromising and ready to lead from the full truth of who you are — then this book was written with you in mind.
It draws on the wisdom of the Tao Te Ching, queer theory, and the realities of leading ethically in a world that is, at this particular moment in history, making that increasingly difficult. It is grounded in six principles — FEEL, KNOW, THINK, VOICE, DREAM, LEAD — not as steps to follow, but as practices to embody and make your own.
The book publishes on Wednesday, June 4th, 2026.
