Most Executives Expire With a Book Still Inside Them. That’s the Worst Form of Silence.

Executives carry some of the richest stories in the world.
Stories of battles fought.
Markets won.
Cultures rebuilt.
Teams transformed.
And crises survived.

Yet, despite decades of experience, most senior leaders never write a single book.

Not because they lack insight.
Not because they lack the intellect.
But because they are busy.
Running companies.
Leading teams.
Delivering results.
Managing pressure.

In the process, their most valuable asset – their wisdom – is left undocumented.
Their stories fade.
Their lessons disappear.
Their impact becomes invisible.

That is the real tragedy.
The world loses knowledge that cannot be replaced.
Their children and protégés lose lessons they desperately need.
Their industry loses the depth that only experience can produce.

In other words:
Most executives die with a book still inside them. That’s the worst form of silence.

Now contrast that silence with what top-flight founders and global leaders do.

Bill Gates has written multiple books.
Richard Branson has written several.
Larry Bossidy turned his leadership philosophy into a classic.
The late Jack Welch authored books that shaped modern management.

And today, Alex Hormozi stands as the Guinness World Record holder for the fastest-selling business books in history – with three blockbuster best sellers.
He turned his frameworks into permanent intellectual property that now outlives his companies.

These leaders understood something profound:
Positions expire.
Influence doesn’t.
Books preserve influence.

A book is the only product that enters boardrooms you may never sit in.
It opens doors you may never knock on.
It extends your voice into places your feet may never reach.

This is the message I’ve championed for years. Read more at pauluduk.com.
Executives – especially in Africa – are sitting on mountains of experience that the world urgently needs.
But too many postpone the work.
They wait for the “right time.”
They wait for retirement.
They wait for less pressure.

And in waiting, they lose their legacy.

Your career is important, but your book is immortal.
Your insights deserve oxygen.
Your leadership deserves documentation.
Your story deserves to be told – by you, not by history’s guesswork.

You’ve built teams.
You’ve solved complex problems.
You’ve navigated crises.
You’ve shaped industries.

Now it’s time to turn that lifetime of mastery into a body of work that outlives you.

Ben Ofungwu penned REMINISCENCES and Eniayewun Ademuyiwa wrote TRANSFORMING.

So let me ask you directly:

Will your wisdom go undocumented, or will you write the book only you can write?

What story are you locking up that the world desperately needs today?
