Overview

• Tony Blair has written a book on political leadership, set to be published in September, aiming to share his insights on being a successful leader.
• The book is intended as a manual for government, drawing on Blair's experiences and observations from his time in office and beyond.
• Blair emphasizes the importance of staying in touch with ordinary people and the transition from talking to doing as key aspects of leadership.
• The guide will address challenges such as dealing with bureaucracy, ensuring security, and harnessing technology for governance.
• Blair's leadership advice is seen as particularly relevant for current Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, as the party leads in polls ahead of an expected general election.
