An exploration into psychological and positive behavioral conditioning, Brainard draws on his comprehensive PhD research to create a prolific manifesto becoming the type of leader you’ve always aspired to be.

This was a surprisingly GREAT book!!!

Wow, this book was really good. Easy to understand and implement. It’s easy to be a manager, but difficult to be a great leader! Just what I was looking for. I would recommend all people in supervisor and manager roles to read this book!

Loved it

Finally a process to find your way… not “the” way.
Recommended to my whole team and will listen again soon to pertinent chapters to coincide with my journey.
