This is a collection of short reviews from Amazon, Waterstones, Foyles, Goodreads and other sites about Constellation.
Ready to lead differently?
This is a rare achievement in leadership literature: a book that manages to satisfy the rigour of academic inquiry while remaining deeply practical and accessible. Drawing on psychology, organisational science, and original research, Danny presents a compelling exploration of leadership beyond traditional hierarchies, challenging readers to rethink where leadership truly resides within organisations.
The academic foundations are thorough and credible, yet Wareham never allows theory to overshadow application. Complex concepts are explained with clarity, supported by relatable examples and actionable insights that leaders can immediately apply within their own teams and organisations. Rather than simply describing a new model of leadership, he provides a practical framework for bringing it to life.
Wareham’s writing is engaging and thoughtful throughout, making sophisticated ideas accessible without oversimplifying them. His concept of leaderless leadership feels both innovative and timely in an increasingly connected and complex world.
It’s time to think about leadership differently
An exceptional book, backed by considerable research, that makes you think about leadership in a different way. The world has changed, and way we approach leading in this world needs to evolve as well.
Well worth a read
Fantastic book with great insights.

Thought-provoking, practical, and very timely
I’ve really enjoyed Constellation. It offers a refreshing take on leadership, focusing less on hierarchy and more on how people, culture, and shared purpose come together to drive progress. The ideas are clear, practical, and easy to apply in real situations.
If you’re leading a business, building a team, or even just interested in how people work together more effectively, this is well worth a read or listen.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A great insight into the power of leadership and how getting it right can make or break a business. it provides the tools to show how to do it correctly. Brilliantly written.

A must read for Leaders of today
A thoughtful and surprisingly relatable read
I picked up Constellation without knowing what to expect, and definitely not because I’m someone who usually reads books about leadership — but this one genuinely surprised me. Danny Wareham explains the idea that leadership doesn’t have to come from one person at the top, but can grow naturally from a group’s shared values, relationships, and culture. It sounds big, but the way it’s written makes it feel really down-to-earth and easy to connect with.
Even without any background in the subject, I found myself nodding along and thinking about my own experiences with people and teams. The writing is clear, honest, and very human — not heavy or technical at all. It’s one of those books that quietly gets under your skin and makes you reflect without even trying.
A genuinely insightful, approachable read that stays with you.
