About The Author

Warwick Fairfax is the founder of Crucible Leadership, a philosophical and practical breakthrough in turning business and personal failures into the fuel for igniting a life of significance. Fairfax was only 26 when, as the fifth-generation heir to the Australian media empire bearing his family name, he led―and lost―a multibillion-dollar public takeover bid. The result? The company founded by his great-great grandfather slipped from family control after 150 years, leaving him to examine not only his own shortcomings and losses, but also his life’s principles and the lessons he learned from family members who came before him and some of history’s greatest leaders. By shaping these insights as a leadership adviser, Fairfax has enabled others to learn from what he describes as their own “crucible experiences” and emerge to lead lives driven by vision and passion and dedicated to serving others. He lives in Annapolis, Maryland, with his wife, Gale. They have three children who are in the process of developing their own unique paths to leading lives of significance.
