This book is about how crucial things work in our business and personal lives – the things that aren’t covered well in business training, but are essential if we want to achieve a high and sustainable level of performance.

​

Think of this as a handy toolkit or user manual. Like any good manual, it is designed to be clear and accessible without glossing over the genuine complexity that sometimes underpins real life. As Einstein is reputed to have said: “everything must be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.”
