This is a wonderfully & succinct compilation of many strands of cutting edge, progressive organisational and individuals thinking. It is an accessible and easy to follow read which any leader should be open to reading.

Heather’s writing is positive, challenging, direct & a call for action.

She lays out this book in an easy to follow style with some actionable experiments within, for those that may be open to them.

This feels, literally, as if it has been written for me personally due to it’s energy, direction and forward-thinking nature that also drive ls me personally

This really is a book for anyone, but especially those in people leadership roles and those with an interest in re-humanising ourselves and the world of work

Performance through and not in spite of People is finally coming and Heathers book reinforces this

Good book on how to revolutionize leadership, going against fear and instead focusing a more sensible approach to inspire and trigger creativity. Traditional hierarchies that used fear-based motivation end up harming both employees and companies, even leading to people wanting to quit or harm. So that approach has to change from executives, who must establish a more transparent workplace built on trust and open collaboration.

Tons of useful stuff in this book. One example: horizontal vs vertical thinking. Loved the analogies and the case studies.
