Amy Newfield writes about team management in such a relatable, easy to comprehend way. Many of her examples are scenarios that my very team is experiencing and her management strategies are clear and applicable. I look forward to bringing the information I have learned from this book into my veterinary hospital. Though I am not in a leadership role, her tips and techniques are helping me to develop leadership qualities and advance my skills. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking to develop their leadership abilities, or is struggling with team management.

I LOVE Amy Newfield. I have two copies of her forst book just in case I need to loan one out.

I'm lucky my current crew is pretty good, but it is always good to be prepared!
