Review :
"Lunchtimes will never be the same again! I love this kind of book - clear, sparkling, full of leadership insights, evidence and practicalities and written in an incisive, no-nonsense style. Lucy Ryan has a gift for cutting through the complex and landing serious leadership points in a digestible format. Recommended reading for anyone looking to increase their bandwidth and personal growth as a positive leader." "This book is an excellent leadership guide to enhancing resilience in an ever-changing world of work. The book contains many useful tips for managers and leaders to develop their own resilience, and ultimately create a more resilient team for the inevitable challenges organizations will face in the years ahead." "Never before have we needed to find and grow great leaders to support us in this new world. And those leaders need our support. And here it is. Lucy Ryan offers practical, wise and profound guidance in this book. I wish that every existing and aspiring leader reads this and more importantly lives the guidance offered here." "With thousands of leadership books out there, is there anything left to say? Well, very much so, if one is prepared to leave the endless theory and pop stories aside and get down to being really practical (while still evidence-driven). If you are a leader or walking towards leadership, this is a rare book that is likely to be useful! I love the ten top tips sections, clear diagrams, practical ideas, the lightness of the writing style and the feeling of the real "know-how" behind the narrative. This book is simply incredible, so enjoy!" "An absolute gem. Full of practical, pragmatic and easy-to-grasp advice for everyone who has a passion for leading and developing people. I love how she uses memorable frameworks to help you structure and practice new techniques. Lucy Ryan has managed to cram so much inspirational advice into this book, which will be invaluable for leaders in this time of rapid change." "Having participated in lots of Lucy Ryan's brilliant workshops, I jumped at the early chance to read this book. Lucy has managed to capture the magic of her workshops and coaching in page-form (I even read the pages in her voice!), leaving you armed and empowered to implement the strategies, tips and tricks that the pages are filled with, all after only a 30-minute cuppa. For anybody that's looking for guidance that lifts you up, course corrects and encourages healthy self-reflection then I could not recommend this book more." "Leadership isn't what it used to be. Thriving as a leader in rapidly evolving world requires an "agility toolkit" - which this resourceful volume provides!" "Lucy Ryan has huge credibility as a leadership coach, and it shows! This is an essential read focusing on the everyday inevitabilities you're expected to resolve in your leadership role. What impresses immediately is the accessibility of the content that is engagingly written, pragmatic and brimming with ideas, concepts, models, realistic case studies and reflective activities. Every chapter offers a multitude of applications that answer the questions common to leaders. The content has you wanting more right from the first page, is easy to digest and exceptionally well referenced. So, grab your lunch and a drink and be prepared to set a timer as this is a page turner." "Lucy Ryan's pragmatic and insightful style shines through, in this "go-to" leadership guide. Approach your reading with an open mind and let it hold you to account as a leader - it provides practical reference tools for newbies and reminds the more experienced of what's really important versus your inbox. An inspiration for all leaders and my personal kick-ass from time to time!" "I have been so lucky to have Lucy Ryan as an executive coach for a number of years. This must-read book brings together all the models, experiences and guidance that I have had the benefit of learning from over the years in a way that is so typical of her straightforward, practical but powerful approach. It'll equip you to navigate challenges, maximize impact and build confidence and capability in your organization, making it an invaluable read for leaders at all stages of their career journey."
