Leadership Reset by Meher Mirchandani redefines leadership through purpose, self-awareness, and conscious business practices.

A TRANSFORMATIVE LEADERSHIP BOOK FOR THE MODERN WORLD

Leadership Reset book

In an era where leadership is increasingly measured by speed, scale, and short - term wins, Leadership Reset, published by Srishti Publishers & Distributors and represented by The Book Bakers Literary Agency, emerges as a powerful counter - narrative - one that places humanity, self - awareness, and purpose back at the centre of business. Authored by entrepreneur, conscious leader, and coach Meher Mirchandani, this book is a deeply reflective yet highly practical guide for leaders who want to build organisations that don’t just survive - but truly thrive. 

At its core, Leadership Reset challenges the traditional, fear - driven models of leadership that dominate boardrooms today. Mirchandani argues that burnout, disengagement, toxic cultures, and misalignment are not operational problems - they are leadership problems rooted in a lack of self - connection. Through her own lived experiences as a second - generation leader navigating a fast - growing family business, she demonstrates that the most meaningful transformation in business begins within the leader themselves. 

The book seamlessly blends personal storytelling with proven leadership frameworks, offering readers a rare combination of emotional depth and strategic clarity. Mirchandani candidly shares her journey of stepping into a legacy business marked by rigid structures, resistance to change, and a deeply entrenched status quo.


“Despite having access to resources, education, and opportunity, I found myself struggling to make an impact - professionally and personally. What followed was not a tactical overhaul, but a profound inner shift: a reset grounded in self - love, awareness, and conscious leadership.” 

Leadership Reset is structured as a progressive journey - moving from awareness and acceptance to purpose, alignment, implementation, and ultimately thriving. Along the way, readers are introduced to powerful concepts such as organisational consciousness, stakeholder alignment, the North Star metric, and playing the infinite game of business. These ideas are not presented as abstract theory, but as lived principles - tested and applied in real organisational settings. 

One of the book’s greatest strengths lies in its unapologetic emphasis on love as a leadership tool. In a corporate world that often equates emotion with weakness, Mirchandani reframes love as a strategic advantage. She shows how leading with empathy, vulnerability, and authenticity builds trust, strengthens culture, and unlocks performance at every level of the organisation.

“Meher’s book is short and crisp yet precise and all encompassing. This precise combination helped us generate a lot of interest amongst publishing houses before we finally zeroed in on the prestigious and well known Srishti Publishers & Distributors,” says one of India’s top most literary agents, Suhail Mathur of The Book Bakers, who also represented Meher’s book.

Whether it’s navigating difficult conversations, realigning teams, or making tough business decisions, the book repeatedly demonstrates that compassion and courage are not opposites - but partners. 

The narrative is enriched with real - life case studies from global organisations and personal business experiences, illustrating how values - driven leadership can turn crises into opportunities and disengaged teams into aligned communities. From handling high - stakes negotiations without ego to embedding mindfulness and emotional intelligence into company culture, Leadership Reset provides practical insights that leaders can apply immediately. 

Importantly, this is not a book that preaches perfection. Mirchandani positions herself not as an infallible leader, but as a deeply human one - willing to acknowledge doubt, failure, and vulnerability. This honesty makes the book both relatable and credible. Leadership, she asserts, is not about control or authority - it is about responsibility, self - mastery, and service. 

Interwoven throughout the book are reflection exercises that invite readers to pause and examine their own leadership patterns, beliefs, and blind spots. These moments of introspection transform Leadership Reset from a passive read into an active experience - one that encourages leaders to reset not only their organisations, but their relationship with themselves. 

Ultimately, Leadership Reset is a call to action for a new generation of leaders. It is for entrepreneurs, founders, executives, and changemakers who sense that the old ways of leading no longer serve them - or the world. It reminds us that businesses are living systems, shaped by the consciousness of those who lead them. And when leaders choose awareness over ego, purpose over pressure, and love over fear, extraordinary transformation follows. 

In a crowded leadership genre, Leadership Reset stands apart as a courageous, timely, and deeply human book - one that doesn’t just talk about change, but embodies it. For leaders ready to redefine success and lead with meaning, this book is not just recommended - it is essential.
