This book is the book you wish your terrible former manager had read: a manual and silent mentor to help managers navigate the trickiest of days in their role and allow team members to do their best work. From Gen X to Gen Alpha and everyone else in between.

From the first to the 500th time you have to hire or fire someone, understanding how on earth that ‘performance management’ thing works (properly), and if appraisals are crap, what do we do instead? – this book is the bible to follow to nail managing people.

Allying the soft skills needed to have the right mindset, to the hard skills that underpin unshakeable systems, leadership trainer and content creator Heather Elkington lays down the 16 rules to follow if you want to lead a high-performing team that gets you noticed for all the right reasons.

This book is fantastic for new leaders who are just starting out or more senior leaders looking to refine their approach. Listening to Heather narrate it has been an absolute joy. What sets this book apart is how approachable it is. Many leadership books can feel overly corporate or stuffy, but this one is fresh and well written with examples. I've found myself returning to it when planning team conversations, as it's packed with actionable insights that are easy to apply in real life. I enjoyed it so much that I ended up buying a hard copy for our office. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to become a more thoughtful and effective leader.

I cannot recommend this book enough
