Reviews

'Sandra has a clarity and purposefulness in her words that really resonate with me as an ambitious, development-focused leader. Having had the wonderful opportunity to be coached by Sandra and hearing that same support and challenge leap from the page here, I can honestly say this book will be more than worth your time and will fast become a trusted guide you can refer back to again and again. Thank you, Sandra!' Richard Orna, Head of Information Services, energy supplier 'A thought-provoking book that made me reflect on how I am performing as a leader and what I need to do to con tinue to develop. I wish it had been written at the start of my leadership journey. It is a fabulous toolkit that I will refer to time and time again, and I can't wait to share it with the teams that I lead and support.' Claire Davis, L & D director, accountancy firm 'Thanks for another great and immersive read Sandra. Once again, it was easy to put myself into the book thanks to how you have written it; I find the exercises in each chapter really help with that. So much resonates with me and the people around me - good, bad and otherwise! Time for some honesty and self-assessment now, before thinking about my action plan.' Becky Forster, pensions software trainer 'This has been a fantastic book to read at the start of my leadership career. There is good advice on how to think about your own behaviour and how to improve. Working with the method is going to help me improve myself and my career.' Dave Shepherd, senior design/development engineer 'This is an excellent book, with great, proven methods for becoming a better leader in any working environment. It has well-thought-out and practical applications. Sandra's wealth of experience, knowledge and understanding really shine through. It is packed with simple steps to start mak ing a difference, to help you on your journey to become more professional and for continuing development.' Martyn Hinam, leisure centre manager and tai chi instructor 'A masterpiece full of practical takeaways and inspiring motivation. The only reason you'll want to put this book down is so that you can go off and implement some of the great strategies and theories so brilliantly articulated within. Perfect.' Neil Trevena, performance specialist, water company 'Great book. It's full of really clear, practical tools and strat egies that I know work because I successfully employed them when I was coached by Sandra. I would encourage managers to read this book and use these tools if they want to improve performance.' Angela Spreadbury, Director of Finance and Resources, SS Great Britain Trust
