Wilkins L: Leading Below the Surface

Leading Below the Surface

How to Build Real (and Psychologically Safe) Relationships with People Who Are Different from You

What if the systems shaping our lives weren't failing by accident-but by design?

The 14 Principles is a bold, grounded manifesto for leaders, builders, and change-makers who know that dignity, belonging, and wellbeing don't happen on their own. They are designed.

Drawing from lived experience, systems thinking, and real-world leadership practice, Bacilia Angel offers a clear, actionable framework for building institutions that actually work for the people inside them.

These principles are not slogans or feel-good ideals. They are design constraints-practical rules that guide decisions when pressure is high, resources are limited, and tradeoffs are unavoidable.

From centering people over programs to treating culture, narrative, joy, and wellbeing as core infrastructure, The 14 Principles challenges readers to rethink how power, trust, and accountability move through systems. It invites leaders to stop fixing surface problems and start redesigning the structures beneath them. This book is for anyone ready to move beyond performative change and build something real, resilient, and human.

The blueprint is here.

The question is, Will you build with intention?

A Manifesto For Building The World We Deserve

The 14 Principles

All employees deserve to work in organizations where they feel respected, included, and valued. Excellence in leadership creates a thriving workplace culture. What qualities make someone a good leader? Why do some leaders get into trouble or head organizations where employees are miserable?Sadly, with no clear definition or agreed upon characteristics and guardrails around workplace conduct, leaders will continue to fall short. Employees will continue to experience negative behaviors at work like bullying, harassment, discrimination, and bias, that we all agree, are unacceptable. In this clear and accessible book, educator, DEI expert, and human resources executive Dr. Dionne Wright Poulton-known as Dr. Dionne-offers a blueprint for leaders to ensure that all employees regardless of culture, background, or identity, enter workspaces that are fair, welcoming, and respectful. She grounds her approach in the three keys of decency, excellence, and integrity, which she positions as essential to workplace civility and effective DEI practice. Cutting through the noise and controversy surrounding DEI, Dr. Dionne brings truth, clarity, and common sense to the conversation. This book: <ul><li>Reframes DEI by focusing on the three keys-Decency, Excellence, and Integrity</li><li>Explores DEI's historical roots and clarifies its real purpose</li><li>Debunks the myths, misinformation, and confusion about DEI</li><li>Explains why some DEI efforts fail-and how leaders can fix them</li><li>Shares practical tools to manage bias, reduce conflict, and promote inclusive leadership</li></ul>Become the excellent leader you can be by adopting the three keys for leading a diverse workforce and create a more fulfilling professional world for everyone!

3 Keys for Leading a Diverse Workforce

Excellence Without Exclusion

She Hit 50, Took Testosterone, and Lit the Fuse

The Hat and the Hill

Success opened the door. Fulfillment takes it further.Checked every box. Earned the titles. Led with strength.
Reached the top-yet something still feels missing.Smart, capable, accomplished .&nbsp;.&nbsp;. and often depleted.Somewhere along the way, the deeper why got buried under the weight of achievement, expectations, and the constant push to prove that women can do it all.Being a woman in business today still carries unique challenges.
But no permission is needed to reclaim power—it's a choice.SelfPowerment is a bold, research-backed guide for high-achieving women ready to stop powering through and start leading from a place of clarity, confidence, and inner peace.Built on 46 years of executive insight and grounded in interviews with 52 senior women leaders and 10 male allies, Deb Smallwood introduces a transformational four-part framework: Acknowledge, Awaken, Accept, Align.Whether stepping into the next chapter of leadership, navigating a career pivot, or seeking deeper personal growth, SelfPowerment helps womenQuiet the inner noise
Move from burnout to purpose
Redefine success on their own terms


A promise of transformation:Exhaustion → Energy
Survival → Thriving
Performance → Presence
Validation → Alignment


This isn’t about scaling back ambition—it’s about realigning power, mindset, and voice.The shift begins now. And it begins from within.Welcome to SelfPowerment.

The Inner Shift for High-Achieving Women Who Want More Than Just Success

“A refreshing, long-overdue playbook about leadership for everyone. I wish Lotus Leadership had been around decades ago; It’s grounded in the best kind of wisdom: the kind that scales.” —Reid Hoffman, cofounder of LinkedIn and bestselling author of Superagency“The way yoga gave the West a new way to breathe, relieve stress, and balance our lives, so too will Lotus Leadership and the powerful Hindu goddess stories in this book give everyone a new way to lead with balance, compassion, and of course, Radical Candor.” —Kim Scott, bestselling author of Radical Candor and Radical RespectA former tech leader’s modern playbook for success, culled from the inspiring stories of a largely unrecognized cadre of luminary women of Indian heritage.We’ve been ignoring the surging force of Indian women in American business for far too long. Not anymore. In this one-of-a-kind book, Silicon Valley tech executive Kamini Ramani tells the story of these women for the first time; highlighting not just their successes, but unveiling how they got there. And the answer is powerful. Notably, it wasn’t by following the same playbook of (white or Indian) men, and it wasn’t by “leaning in.”Instead, these women—often unconsciously—drew on the learned wisdom of their heritage, and specifically the stories of the main Hindu goddesses they were raised with. At the core of this is an embrace of duality similar to the tenants of Yoga that encourages harmony rather than dissonance; an emphasis on the collective over the individual; and the ability to own your power with calm and resilience.Ramani spent a year interviewing more than thirty of the top women of Indian heritage in American business. In Lotus Leadership she distills their paths into a framework likened to a “yoga for business” practice that can be followed by everyone, no matter where they are from.In her no-nonsense “Auntie” style, Ramani unveils—petal by petal—a new way of leading based on five principles: <ul><li></li></ul>Embracing both your so-called feminine and masculine sides in harmony, and using one or the other as the situation demands.<li>Letting curiosity guide you, not the pursuit of titles, ladders, or a paycheck.</li><li>Building harmonious life partnerships that take a long-term view of “having it all”—not keeping “50-50” score in the moment.</li><li>Living in abundance beyond material wealth to include a happy family, a strong team, philanthropy, and investing in your community.</li><li>Combining all these traits in a way that is completely unique to your strengths and your journey.</li><ul> </ul>With inspiring stories and practical advice, Lotus Leadership is a pioneering guide to blossoming in business and in life.

The Pressure to Shrink and the Practice of Showing Up Fully

Leading Without Shrinking

The old, top-down approach to leadership doesn't work any more. What we need is a more flexible, creative approach - one that empowers people to do their best work, rather than tells them to do so. In Creative Leadership, Rama Gheerawo applies the mind of a design expert to the twenty-first-century organisation. In particular, his book shows how success in the future will increasingly be dependent on a mastery of three basic principles: creativity, clarity and empathy. Drawing on his own experience in leading over 100 design projects with government, business and the third sector, it sets out a blueprint for engagement and success that applies to everything from small enterprises, to large multinationals. 'This book is essential for anyone looking for more empathetic, creative, and resilient forms of leadership' Caroline Casey, Co Founder, The Valuable 500
