Reviews

Making the complex simple is really hard - especially when you're in the midst of things as a leader. This brilliant book does just that. It's a 'go to' for me if I need to step out and re-set my perspective in order to move things forwards. - KATE COLLINS - CEO, TEENAGE CANCER TRUST David Mansfield tells it like is... and how work and life can and should be better. We don't half complicate things! I know from experience David doesn't do waffle and I wish he'd written this no-nonsense and no-jargon book years ago. - GERRY MURPHY - CHAIRMAN, BURBERRY PLC Less a business book and more a series of captivating stories that give brilliant lessons for being more effective and successful at work. A fantastic page-turning read! - BRUCE DAISLEY - UK PRESIDENT, TWITTER David Mansfield was always known as a tough operator from his earliest days in TV. He is also known for building strong teams, who share a unifi ed vision and have a lot of fun. His range of experience written in his inimitable, no-nonsense, dry style will make this a very readable and useful book. - DAME CAROLYN McCALL - CEO ITV PLC Delightfully waspish and witty, punchy and practical. A 'just get it done' manifesto for our over-complicated, jargonistic business times. A must-read. - ROBERT PHILIPPS - FOUNDER, JERICHO CHAMBERS If The Monday Revolution was a private members club I'd join! - NICK JONES - FOUNDER, SOHO HOUSE What an invaluable book. With many real life examples, it is packed full of useful tips to give tangible and long lasting results, and improve the performance of your business. Setting this out in the context of a taking control of your working week is a nice touch. - ANDREW WILKES - PARTNER, SMITH & WILLIAMSON At Capital we kept Manno away from the music but he did his best to keep me away from the money!! - CHRIS TARRANT - TV PERSONALITY It's very rare to fi nd a business book that is a real page turner, the Monday Revolution is one of them. All too often, business books are written with little context, but the real-world stories David provides throughout this book, help provide great examples of how to (or how not to) put the advice into action. A must read for any CEO/Entrepreneur interested in a very comprehensive guide to operating at the highest level. - PAUL THOMAS - CEO, LEAD FORENSICS Being on a board and working with David was fun, whilst the serious side of business got done. Read this book and have fun while absorbing the serious matter. - PETER WILLIAMS - CHAIRMAN, SUPERDRY PLC Building a business is relentless hard work, and you are supposed to have all the answers all the time - and of course you don't. That's why you need David, and if you can't get him, then get his book. He is smart, highly commercial, direct, uncompromising and, annoyingly, usually right. Keep this book by your desk and use it regularly. It's great advice, but not always easy to implement - but then building a business isn't easy. - ANDREW GRANT - FOUNDER, TULCHAN COMMUNICATIONS LLP I have benefited from David's wise words many times over the years, even if I haven't always wanted to hear them. This book is full of useful lessons on business and life. Roll on The Monday Revolution. - JAMES CLAYTON - FILM PRODUCER, CHAIRMAN, BEANO STUDIOS


The advice in this book is not only for business owners, as it can be applied to anyone's career. Monday is the first step of the week and the author shows how steps add up. This is a great resource! * NetGalley * I'm looking to grow my business & want to improve my approach to new business & pitching. I was getting sick of hearing that our business had come second. There are tips that I've already started implementing. I realised that the was following the rules of the formal process, when I should have gathered intelligence about their needs in parallel. I'd highly recommend if you want to learn from someone who has been there and done it. * amazon.co.uk * Great book - absolutely chock full of advice on how to kick-start/re-start your business. Each chapter has stories, examples, some deep thinking and a useful check list to get you going. David is one of those rare individuals who can combine the best elements of objective, well-thought out business strategy with human emotional intelligence and empathy. Both traits shine through. An essential read if you want to improve your business * amazon.co.uk *
