The differentiating mindset and habits that help you turn insight into action.
When you put learning at the center of everything you do, you grow your career, your leadership, your relationships, and your joy and fulfillment in life. But even for people who are naturally curious and interested in solving problems, being an effective learner who can turn their learning into action takes insight and practice.
With infectious enthusiasm and optimism, David Novak shows you how to master active learning. A trailer-park kid who lived in twenty-three states before entering high school, Novak rapidly ascended the ranks at PepsiCo to become cofounder and CEO of one of the largest corporations in the world, the global restaurant icon Yum! Brands (KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and the Habit Burger Grill). And he credits active learning with getting him there.
This compilation of wisdom and practical habits from Novak's life and from some of the most successful leaders in the world—CEOs from many industries, military and political leaders, sports greats, experts, and coaches—is your active-learning practice manual. Chapter by chapter, Novak and his all-star roster of leaders share how they've climbed to the highest levels in their fields.

What sets this book apart is its focus on habits—the small, often overlooked choices that compound into greatness. It breaks down how the world’s most successful leaders approach learning as a lifelong journey. From curiosity and humility to resilience and strategic thinking, the book provides a roadmap for how to lead by example, foster meaningful connections, and embrace continuous improvement—concepts that resonate deeply with my own philosophy of leadership. I strongly recommend this book to anyone aspiring to lead with authenticity and effectiveness, especially if your current understanding of leadership leans toward outdated notions of authority and control. This is a guide to becoming the kind of leader who doesn’t just solve problems but inspires solutions—someone who not only handles challenges better but also helps others do the same. For me, How Leaders Learn is more than a book; it’s a playbook for living out the champion mindset.
