Leadership doesn't start at the top- it starts with you. Scaling Pyramids: Leadership Lessons from a Mid-Level Bureaucrat is an honest, engaging, and research-informed exploration of what it means to lead from the bottom and middle of an organization-especially within complex systems that aren't always built for innovation, agility, or humanity. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience as a federal law enforcement officer, diplomat, educator, and public servant, author Christopher Stitt brings a rare combination of street- level credibility and scholarly insight to the leadership conversati...
Leadership doesn't start at the top- it starts with you. Scaling Pyramids: Leadership Lessons from a Mid-Level Bureaucrat is an honest, engaging, and research-informed exploration of what it means to lead from the bottom and middle of an organization-especially within complex systems that aren't always built for innovation, agility, or humanity. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience as a federal law enforcement officer, diplomat, educator, and public servant, author Christopher Stitt brings a rare combination of street- level credibility and scholarly insight to the leadership conversation. Throughout the book, he weaves together personal stories from his global assignments with contemporary leadership research from behavioral science, organizational psychology, and decision- making theory. The result is a practical and thought- provoking field guide for those who are tired of waiting for permission to lead-and ready to make a difference right where they are. In these pages, you'll find lessons on how to influence up, down, and across your organization. You'll learn how to build trust, coach others, think strategically, and maintain your integrity even when politics or process get in the way. You'll discover why the middle of the organizational pyramid isnot a waiting room for the next promotion-it's the center of gravity where culture, performance, and credibility are either built or broken. Whether you're managing teams in a government agency, navigating the corporate hierarchy, or trying to make change from within a large institution, Scaling Pyramids offers you a road map grounded in both lived experienc and real evidence. With a voice that is both candid and deeply practical, Stitt reminds us that leadership isn't about rank-it's about showing up, stepping up, and speaking up in the moments that matter. If you've ever felt overlooked, underutilized, or underestimated in your role, this book is for you. It's time to lead. Not someday-now.
